WFPBNO Personal Pepperoni Pizzas. DIY!! #vegan #healthyfood

How about a do it yourself pizza night wth the family? It's really easy to do. Prego Lower Calorie marinara sauce is compliant and on the shelf at Kroger. Store brand whole wheat pita is just flour, water and salt or make your own pita crust. I cut off the top and used the bottom as crust. You can make cheezy sauce like I did and add your own toppings. In my case, I made beets into a pepperoni substitute.  There are no limits on creativity! 

BEET JERKY PEPPERONI

Roast some beets with the skin on wrapped in foil. Set your mandolin to #2 and slice them. Put them on parchment paper. Season them with 1t fennel seeds, 1t onion salt, 1T dried onion flakes 1T garlic powder and 1/2 t crushed red peppers ground together in a mortar and pestle.

Bake at 375F for 40 min or until they start to get a little crispy. You have to watch them. Those on the top rack were perfect and the whole pan on the bottom rack got burned black.
Here's my cheezy sauce recipe:

CHEEZY SAUCE

Prep time:  15 minutes

Cooking time:  20 minutes

Total time:  35 minutes

Recipe

3 large redskin potatoes

6 TBSP Nutritional yeast

4 TBSP Tapioca flour

1 TBS lemon juice

1/4 cup white vinegar

1/4 tsp Tabasco 

1 TBSP salt

1 3/4 cups of starchy water from the boiled potatoes.

(If you like, add roasted red peppers to the blender to give it the orange cheddar color)

Peel, cut up and boil the potatoes in at least 2 cups of water with the TBSP of salt. Save the starchy water.

Put 1 3/4 cups of the starchy water from the potatoes and everything else into your blender or food processor and puree it until smooth.

Pour the mixture into a saucepan and cook it on medium low heat stirring constantly until it thickens (about 20 min).

Add a little more water if it's too thick. Let it cool allowing it to thicken a little more and serve warm.
As pizza topping, pour it hot over your pizza sauce like mozzarella. Add your toppings.

Season with salt, pepper etc. to taste.

Enjoy!
