1/2 tsp Ground Rosemary
PIZZA SAUCE:
8 oz can No-Salt Tomato Sauce
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp Italian Herb
I tsp Onion Powder
1 tsp Dried Oregano
1 tsp Dried Basil
1 tsp Salt Substitute (Well Your World’s Galaxy Dust)
1 tbsp Nutritional Yeast
PIZZA TOPPINGS:
1/2 cup Mushrooms
1/2 cup Onion
1 small Zucchini
1/2 cup Red Bell Pepper
1 clove Garlic
2 cups Spinach and/or Kale
5 sliced Black or Green Olives or Artichoke Heart (if desired)
Directions
CRUST:
Cook potatoes in Instant Pot for 20 minutes (for small to medium-sized potatoes)
Once potatoes have cooked, preheat oven to 425° F
Mash cooked potatoes until cream (no lumps)
Add garlic, onion powder, oregano, basil, and rosemary to potatoes and mix well
Line cookie sheet with parchment paper non-stick, silicone liner and spread the potato mixture evenly keeping the crust about 1/2 inch thick
Bake in oven for 20 minutes or until the top begins to turn golden brown
Remove from oven, carefully flip the crust over, and continue cooking for an additional 15 minutes or until golden brown
WHILE CRUST IS COOKING:
Add all sauce ingredients to a bowl, mix well, and set aside
Chop and slice topping vegetables to desired size or shape
“Dry Sauté” vegetables in a stove top pan using the lid to help retain moisture
Cook until soft and pliable
Once done, add chopped kale, spinach, or other leafy greens and set aside
When crust is finished cooking on both sides, spread pizza sauce mixture to cover the top of the crust
Add sautéed vegetables and other desired toppings to cover the pizza
Place back in the oven for 15 minutes or as desired
Once cooked, serve as is or add more toppings like fresh greens, sprouts, or other vegetables
Cut into slices, serve, and enjoy
NOTES:
When “Dry Sautéing” if vegetables begin to stick to pan, add 1 tbsp of water or no-salt vegetable broth at a time and as needed and continue sautéeing until done
If using Kale, add to pan after vegetables begin to soften as Kale will overcook if added at the beginning
