My sons make pizza so I’ve never tried. Wanted an easy dinner with salad and soup. We never got to the soup as the three of us ate the whole pizza.
Make sauce:
1/4c. raw caschews
1 avocado
squeeze of lemon
1/2c cilantro
2 T water
½ small green chile seeded. (or mince and fold into sauce)
1 peeled garlic clove
Blend the above in the vitamix. Set aside.
Pizza dough:
Buy one fresh garlic or whole wheat fresh pizza dough from Trader Joes. Notice there is a due date on pizza dough. I made day before due. Note: I keep these in freezer. Take one out in morning to defrost, and by dinner time it is ready to turn out for rolling.
Turn bag of dough inside out onto floured pastry cloth, silpat or board. Divide into 3 balls so you will be making 3 pizzas. Let rest 20 min.
Roll each ball into a round circle.
Spread cilantro cream generously over dough. (This is very good on tacos also)
I think your creativity comes into play next.
We made when camping. I had a bought jar of pesto and some pine nuts. That was all on top and we cooked on foil on the grill resting over the fire. Great appetizer. Another option is to lightly spread pizza sauce over pizza. Add assortment of vegetables and drizzle the cream sauce over top. I had a fresh zucchini from the garden, some mushrooms, Morning Star crumbles, a red chile pepper, pickled red onion and pine nuts . I sliced the zucchini and mushrooms very thin then layered them in circle all around edge and mushrooms on inside. Sprinkle pine nuts, red pepper. And shake Frontier seasoning all over. Don’t replace with just another curry brand. This one has several other ingredients so it might be the key. Lightly spray top with the oo canola oil spray in can. Don’t drizzle oil, it’s too much. Just a light spray helps with browning. Only lightly spray edge around.
I baked on a round pizza pan that has holes all over it. (this helps to cook center through as air comes through it) My son likes a pizza stone heated in oven first to 500 degrees. If your crust is very thin, it is not going to take that long.
We vegheads did not miss the cheese.
