The biggest expense for this meal is the meat. I might suggest looking for a local organic farm that sells their own meat. We buy from Graham’s Organics of Rosebush, Michigan. The few extra miles out of town is worth it. They sell ethically grown and prepared meat at prices lower then the local grocery store.

Customize Your Pizza
Pizza is just fun! Crock pot pizza is no different. Everyone in the family has different preferences on what toppings they like best. When adding your toppings, you might make one side mushrooms and olives and the middle has the works with crushed garlic, and the remaining half will just have pepperoni.
My family likes to enjoy our crock pot grain free pizza with small side salads, zucchini chips, or zucchini fries.
