pizza base
3 cups sprouted buckwheat* (about 2 cups dry)
¼ cup sunflower seeds
¼ cup hemp seeds
2 tbsp agave nectar
2 cups veggies- zucchini works well- salt it and wipe dry or you can use pulp of other veggies from the juicer.
½ cup sundried tomatoes (soaked for 1 hour in 2 cups water)
3 tablespoons lecithin
6 tablespoons olive oil
1.5 cups water (use the tomato soaking liquid)
2 cloves garlic
1 tsp salt
½ cup nutritional yeast
1 ½ cups flax meal
herbs and spices
you can mix and match these to get your favourite combination!
1tsp oregano
1tsp basil
1tsp marjoram
1tsp thyme
½ tsp rosemary
½ tsp sage
pinch black pepper
fresh italian parsley
cheats version- 1tbsp blended italian herbs
you can also add fresh herbs, just have a play!
method:
mix everything but the flax meal in a food processor. pour into a large bowl and add the flax meal by hand.
shape as desired on dehydrator sheets, around 2-3cm thick. dehydrate for around 10 hours. when it has a slight crust, slide onto the mesh trays for another 6 hours or so until the whole outside is quite firm but the centre is soft.
- • buckwheat is the easiest thing in the world to sprout- you just need a jar with a mesh lid, or a juicing bag. soak them overnight, then rinse them 2-3 times a day for 2 days- as soon as little tails appear (sometimes within 24 hours) they are good to go.
