The pizza creation

This recipe makes a bit of extra veggies that can be placed in a separate pan to bake at the same time as the pizza.  

Super Green Pizza with Red Pepper Cashew Cheese

Toppings
1 head of broccoli finely chopped
4 cups of greens (kale, spinach) ripped into bite size pieces
2 heirloom tomatoes diced
1/2 green pepper chopped
1/2 jar/can of tomato paste
1/4 tsp italian seasoning
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1 garlic clove minced
1/4 cup parsley
1/2 cup to 1 cup daiya

Cheese Sauce
1 red pepper
2 tbsp nutritional yeast
1 tbsp oil
2 tbsp agave
1 cup cashews
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp amchur (dried mango) (2 tsp lemon juice can be used instead)

Dough
1 tsp salt
2 tsp yeast
1 tsp sugar
1/4 cup warm water
1 cup wheat flour
1 3/4 cups garbanzo bean flour
1/4 cup ground flax meal
1 1/4 cup warm water
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 tsp italian herbs
1 tsp oregano


To make the bread, first mix the yeast, with 1/4 cup warm water and sugar. Let it stand for 10 minutes.  Mix the rest of the dry ingredients together.  Add the yeast mixture to the dry mixture plus 1 1/4 cup of water.  Knead the dough with flour on your hands until elastic and smooth.  Place the dough ball into a container and cover with a cloth for 1 hour.  

Spread the dough out onto an oiled pizza pan.  Lather the tomato paste on top.  Evenly spread the tomato pieces and the green bell pepper on the pizza.  Sprinkle the garlic powder and the italian seasonings over the pizza.  

To make the cheese sauce, blend the ingredients together (from red pepper to salt). Sprinkle the amchur atop.  Pour the cheese sauce into a bowl with the greens, broccoli, minced garlic and parsley.   

Put this mixture evenly on top of the pizza --- there will be extra of this cheesy greens, so they can be put in another pan in the oven :)
