Vegan Pizza

For [livejournal.com profile] 10zlaine:


Quick Pizza

Make the Notzarella Cheez recipe. Make the Pizza Dough recipe. Buy or make some vegan pizza sauce. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of corn meal onto each pizza pan. Divide the dough into two equal parts. Roll out the dough and put it into the pizza pans, trimming off any excess. Bake at 550 for about 5 minutes. Spread the sauce on the crusts. Spread on the cheez. Sauté any toppings (such as onions, bell peppers, mushrooms, green olives, black olives, sun-dried tomatoes, vegan pepperoni) in the smallest amount of oil and sprinkle over the pizzas. Bake until the crust lightly browns on the bottom--about 10-15 minutes.


Notzarella Cheez

2 c. Water
2 1/4 tsp. Lemon juice
1/3 c. Nutritional Yeast flakes
1/3 c. Rolled oats
1/4 c. Arrowroot
1/4 tsp. Garlic powder
1/4 tsp. Italian seasoning
1 1/2 tsp. Onion powder
3 T. Tahini
1 1/2 tsp. Sea salt

Put everything in a blender and blend for 1 minute. Pour into a saucepan and heat, stirring constantly, until thickened. Blend with electric mixer to remove any clumps.

Note: This can be frozen, then quickly grated and sprinkled over dishes such as pizza. It can also simply be spread over the pizza (easiest when it's just been made and is poured directly from the pan).


Pizza Dough

1 1/2 T. Yeast
1 c. Warm water
1 tsp. Sucanat
1/3 c. Corn oil
1 tsp. Sea salt
3 1/2 c. Unbleached white flour

Combine the yeast, water, and Sucanat in a medium-sized bowl. Let sit until foamy. Add the oil, salt, and flour to the yeast mixture and knead lightly together. Let rise at least 5 minutes.

That looks very good. And I am a carnivore.

I think I will have to add this to my repertoire, as I have a growing number of vegetarian and vegan friends.
