We were wanting a quick version of the Hawawski, the Middle Eastern street food so we decided to try with our Real Food For Life Base “Bread”. Keto and Paleo, as well as being able to substitute the meat for extra vegies to make a vegetarian option (not egg free).
Like pizza, you can change the filling to your liking, and we have tried many variations, as they are almost a “Middle Eastern Pizza”
Let us know what your favorite filling is when experimenting.
