This barbecue-flavored squash pizza is both a seasonal dish and a gluten-free recipe for those with dietary restrictions. Created by Isadora at the food blog She Likes Food, the homemade BBQ Spaghetti Squash Pizza is a yummy and autumnally appropriate recipe that is far from traditional.
Instead of your classic marinara red sauce and mozzarella cheese, this pie features a barbecue sauce base with smoked gouda instead. With the addition of winter squash, this fall entree is one you'll want to enjoy all season long. You can use Isadora's own gluten-free pizza dough recipe, use your own favorite or even go with a store-bought variety. You will also need some thinly sliced red onions and fresh cilantro leaves for topping.
