      I'm almost literally salivating while scrolling through this. I *love* the pizza idea, but also curious to try making "tacos" with it. And deserts. I've been looking for some alternative that my mom can eat without raising her sugar levels, because of how crazy bread can be. I'm mostly happy that I don't have to give up bread-based foods since this could easily mimic anything, and I'm still getting my eggs in without being limited to a few things.
