When there is a large family to feed and you're having a special dinner guest, and you're on the GAPS diet, a dinner menu can be challenging.

The last time we had a priest for dinner along with another family, we served this pizza. We made three pizzas, a salad and served home brewed beer and kombucha.

For dessert, our friend made a gluten free pineapple upside down cake. This we served with coffee. We had many compliments on the meal. It was early summer and it really hit the spot.

This pizza can also be served as a casual meal. This is our favorite companion meal for movie night.

As moviemakers, we love movies, but you know what we really love? A perfect dinner for movie night! This is THE MEAL when it comes to what to eat while enjoying Industrious Family Films originals. 

It is also a birthday favorite. It can stand on its own with no sides for a birthday party. Pairing this pizza with cake and ice-cream makes it filling enough for a birthday dinner.

Everyone is usually way too interested in the movie to eat a lot of food so movie night is simple with this one easy dish.

It is not an especially economical meal for a large family so it really has become a special occasions meal for us. Enjoy!

2. Melt In Your Mouth Delicious Chocolate Chip Skillet Cookie Recipe

Recipe by Carolyn. Adapted by Industrious Family

Ingredients:

• 2 cups almond flour
• ¾ cups shredded coconut (optional)
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ½ cup butter softened
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1 egg
• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 cups chocolate chips

Note: This recipe makes 1 cookie. We usually need to double to serve enough for our whole family.

Directions:

• Preheat the oven to 325F.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut (if using), baking soda and salt. 
• In a large bowl, beat the butter and honey until creamy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract. 
• Add the almond flour mixture to the butter mixture until well combined, then stir in the chocolate chips.
• Pour the dough in a skillet and bake 20 to 25 minutes, until light golden brown. The cookie will be very soft and puffed when removed from oven (it won't seem cooked through).
• Let cool before serving. Enjoy with whipped cream or ice cream!

As a family, we definitely prefer to skip on the shredded coconut and opt for more almond flour.
