Soooooo my brother and his girlfriend were coming to dinner, along with my sister and my mother, so pizza was in order. I thought it would be fun to riff on pizza but go with vegan, gluten free, grain free, and super yummy. This hit it out of the park. I will definitely be making this again. With a dough made of tomato sauce, almond flour and coconut meal, and a filling made of spinach and cashew with some lovingly sauteed onion for good measure, the flavours are fantastic. Easy to make, and pretty to serve.

1 1/4 cup tomato sauce puree
1 tsp sea salt
black pepper
1/4 cup ground flax seeds
1/4 cup ground chia seeds

cashew vegan ricotta and spinach dip
1 1/2 cups cashews, soaked for at least 4 hours, drained.
300 g package frozen chopped spinach

3 tbsp nutritional yeast (2 tbsp)
1/4 tsp nutmeg
black pepper
2 tbsp apple cider vinegar (1 tbsp)
directions:

sauteed onion:
2 onions sauteed in coconut oil with a pinch of sea salt
directions:
1. roll the dough flat
2. spread with spinach dip
3. sprinkle with sauteed onion
4. roll up
5. bake for 60 minutes
6. let cool for a few minutes then cut and serve
and it's fabulous the next day.
