We Found The Best Pizza In The World: It's In Bali, It's Raw And You Can Make It, Too
Yes, raw pizza is a thing. And, as Kale.Life editor Carly discovered, a surprisingly delicious thing at that.
Not planning a trip to Bali but want to try raw pizza? (Of course you do!) Here’s how to make a 100% raw pizza in the comfort of your own home.
Note: If you don’t have a dehydrator, you can use your oven on a low temperature for the same dehydration results.
