Shauna James Ahern writes the blog, Gluten-Free Girl and the Chef and has been at the forefront of gluten-free blogging for quite a few years now. She’s arguably one of the best known food bloggers in the world — so anytime she posts something, you know it comes from a sincere place and will contain valuable information on the gluten-free diet and/or an amazing gluten-free recipe.

While there are many store-bought options that vary greatly in quality and price, many pizza chains offering gluten-free crusts — also varying greatly in quality and price — there is no comparison to making your own from scratch. Yes, it’s a little more work, but it’s something that pays off handsomely in the end.
