Today I show you how to make a quick and easy pizza that tastes great.
This is a fast way to have a hot lunch on the table in less than 15 minutes.
Best of all, it is plant based vegan and is a great way to use up any leftovers you have in your fridge.

Instructions
Pizza
- To begin this recipe you will need a pizza tray and a blender. Before you start, get the oven on at 180 C / 360 F.
- Place your Pita bread on the pizza tray and evenly cover with tomato paste. Then layer up your favourite pizza ingredients. I have shown a basic recipe based on what I had in the fridge. You can do the same. Left over dips, chutneys and spreads can add a great flavour so take a chance!
- When you have finished layering, finish the pizza off with a generous splashing of cheesy sauce before placing in the oven for 10 - 12 minutes.
Cheesy Sauce
- Add all the dry ingredients to your blender before the hot water. Start with a 1/4 cup of water and only add more if you like a runnier sauce. The less water you use the thicker the " melted cheese" will be.
- If you are using a blender with a removable lid remember to vent it a little or you will likely end up with a sauce covered kitchen!
- Blend the sauce until nice and smooth and make sure to scrape off any stubborn bits of tapioca stuck to the sides of the blender.

What is the brand of your small blender? Is it high speed?
LOVE your recipies and videos ^_^
It is a tribest blender… see description here: http://amzn.to/1LFZxJh
You could also use large tortillas. In our area we have sprouted grain tortillas that I have used for small pizzas. They hold up really well in the oven.
Fabulous 🙂
Just made this for Friday Pizza Night. Loved it! Cheese sauce is yummy and using tomato paste instead of pizza sauce was awesome. So much more flavor. My daughter and I enjoy your youtube videos. Thanks for your hard work.
So glad you made it and that you like the recipes and videos 🙂
Hi Anja
Such a quick and easy recipe, we prefer the pita base too, Thank you for sharing. I have made it quite often, usually using homemade hummus or eggplant spread on the base and a variety of toppings, we just love the cheesy sauce. This makes for a great quick lunch with salad on the side.
Glad you like the recipe 🙂
Made this a couple of times as a quick go to. Loved it as I used what veggies I had in my fridge. Making it for lunch to day.
So glad you like it 🙂
LOVE your videos/recipes. I’m totally in love with the onion dip. I crave it. I am new to vegan. Would it be possible to let us know how long the recipes will keep in the refrigerator? I’m used to all those chemicals and preservatives 🙁 I can’t wait until the new recipes come out. I’m like a kid waiting for Christmas.
So glad you like the recipes Kate 🙂 The dip should last about a week in the fridge.
which onion dip are you talking about?
Love your recipes!, can I use potato starch instead of Tapioca?
Thank you! you’re the best!
I haven’t tried with potato starch but it may not be quite the same.
Excellent time saver.. Better than a delivery pizza and quicker.
I can’t wait to try this sauce! I’ll also subscribe to your channel and social media 🙂
Enjoy and I look forward to seeing more of you 🙂 x

What can be substituted for the pine nuts and also the tapioca starch? Thanks!
You can use any nuts that you like… cashews would work well. You can use arrowroot instead of tapioca.
I always have love your cooking videos please keep them coming
You give me such great ideas
Love ya”
Great pizza and so easy to make.
Hi Anja, would like to know whether the pine nuts are necessary for the sauce. Thanks..
You could use cashews instead… the pine nuts just make it creamy and add a nice depth of flavor.
Can you substitute anthing else for the tapioca starch in the cheese sauce?
Arrowroot powder.
