Use a six-inch multigrain pita or naan bread and you’ll have a delicious and healthy pizza dinner in no time. Our local Save-On-Foods carries the Flatout brand, which makes delicious high-protein flatbreads, as well as a flatbread meant for thin crust pizza. Check out Townsite Fruit & Veg for many different non-dairy cheese options, as well as smoked tofu.
The grub:
4 x 6-inch flatbreads
8 tbsp tomato paste
1/2 cup smoked tofu, grated
1/2 medium onion, finely chopped
2 white mushrooms, thinly sliced
1/2 bell pepper (any colour), diced
2 Roma tomatoes, sliced
3/4 cup shredded or grated non-dairy cheese (e.g. Daiya brand)
Ground black pepper to taste
The how-to:
Preheat oven to 375 Fahrenheit.
Spread two tablespoons of tomato paste on each flatbread. Add smoked tofu evenly across each flatbread.
Distribute onion, mushrooms, bell pepper, tomatoes and non-dairy cheese evenly across the four flatbreads. Add black pepper.
Place pizzas on ungreased baking sheets and bake for 10-15 minutes, until non-dairy cheese is bubbling and veggies are cooked.
Makes four small pizzas.
