Raw Pizza



Here's one of our recent experiments: a great pizza crust recipe we got from Tamara on the VegPeople site ...

Raw Pizza Crust
3/4 cup golden flax seeds (ground fine)
2 cups almonds (ground fine)
2 cups sunflower seeds (ground fine)
2 tbs. olive oil
2 tsp. dried basil
2 cloves fresh garlic (chopped)
1 1/2 tsp. salt
3-4 tbs. honey
1/2 cup water or as needed

How to: Put the water, honey, salt, basil and olive oil in a food processor. Pulse everything till smooth. Set aside. In a large mixing bowl combine the flax, almonds, and sunflower seed powders. Pour the water mixture on top, using your hands form into a big mound. Add more water if necessary. Knead the dough to form a smooth round. Give it a taste to test for seasonings. If it needs more salt add some. Divide the mound into four equal sections. Form these into balls. Take the first ball and put it onto a teflex sheet. Shape it into a thin round. About 4 mm thick. Make the "lip" (crust) around the pizza a little thicker. Do the same thing for the other mounds. Place each tray of pizza into a dehydrator set to 105 F. for 10 hours. Then remove from teflex sheet and continue to dehydrate on the tray for 10 more hours. Leave pizzas in the dehydrator until ready to put the sauce and toppings on.




Then we added toppings:

- Wendi's super recipe for Marinara Sauce using raw and sundried tomatoes
- a "Nut Cheese" from a recipe in Allisa Cohens' book "Living on Live Food"
- some sliced sweet red peppers
- some alfalfa sprouts
