Raw Pizza


I know, I haven't posted in a very long time, so this is very long overdue. I promise though, this next week will be filled with so many recipes, because of corse, it is Christmas!! Yay! I'll be doing 'lots of baking, and cooking too, and I will try to share every recipe I do. This recipe here I made a long time ago, so it is about time I posted something about it. It tastes really great and I hope you all enjoy it!

To make this raw pizza, you will need...
1/4 of a batch of pesto (see link below)
1/4 batch sunflower olive cheese (see link below)
4 zucchini
1/2 cup baby tomatoes
6 pearl onions
1/4 cup sun dried tomatoes (you can make your own in a dehydrator or you can buy them)
1/3 cup red olives


First, cut the zucchini into strips using a mandolin slicer; you can do it manually to if you do not have one, but your slices may be thicker and you may end up needing more zucchinis. Once sliced, lay them on your non-stick dehydrator sheet on a dehydrator tray. Layer them on top of each other until there is no gaps (this is your crust). You can make it a square pizza or a circular one, by laying them so they form the shape you want. Then, carefully spread the pesto on top. Cut the baby tomatoes into halves, as well as the pearl onions. Pit and cut the olives into pieces and slice the sun dried tomatoes too. Sprinkle your toppings on evenly, then sprinkle on the sunflower olive cheese.

Put the tray into the dehydrator at 105 degrees and leave it for 10-12 hours, or until the zucchini have stuck together, the tomatoes are dried out, and the onions are dried out.

Cut it into slices and enjoy,
Julia

P.S. variation for this recipe: make them bite sized!!! Just place the zucchini down separate and put the toppings on each piece!
