Grain/Gluten-Free Vegan Vegetable Pizza

I miss pizza! Pizza is bad in so many ways for a grain-free vegan.  It's the dish of pure evil!  hahahaha.  I came across a really cool bread mix that I had to modify, but it's really tasty!  The brand is Chebe.  I also discovered Daiya cheese, which is grain-free, vegan, etc. etc.  I'm excited!  I'll post the entire recipe here - from the crust to the pizza sauce.  This was SUPER yummy!

Grain/Gluten-Free Vegan Vegetable Pizza  - THE DOUGH
1 package Chebe Pizza Crust Mix
1 teaspoon Xanthan Gum
2 tablespoons Grapeseed Oil
3 teaspoons Egg Replacer
4 tablespoons Water
4 tablespoons Almond Milk

In a medium bowl add Chebe and xanthan gum - mix well.  With a fork, incorporate grapeseed oil.  In a small bowl, add egg replacer and water and mix very well until no clumps remain.  Add to Chebe and blend with fork.  Add almond milk  and blend with a fork.  Knead mixture until all the chebe is incorporated and a nice doughy ball remains.   Using the palm of your hand, spread the dough out into a 14" circle, or rectangle.

 Grain/Gluten-Free Vegan Vegetable Pizza  - THE SAUCE
2 tablespoons Tomato Paste - I use bionaturae
3/4 cup Water
1 teaspoons Herb Stop's Pizza Seasoning
dash Herb Stop's Onion Salt
1/2 teaspoon Herb Stop's Minced Garlic
1/2 teaspoon Arrowroot

Add all ingredients to a blender - I used my magic bullet.  Blend until all ingredients are incorporated.  If the sauce is too runny, add arrowroot 1/4 teaspoon at a time.

 Grain/Gluten-Free Vegan Vegetable Pizza - PUTTING IT TOGETHER
Premade dough, rolled out
Premade, pizza sauce
Daiya Mozzarella "Cheese"
Veggies of your choice - I used red onion, zucchini and tomatoes

Preheat oven to 450.  Using all the premade sauce, cover the pizza dough, leaving the edges without sauce.  Sprinkle Daiya cheese on top, using less than what you would of normal cheese.  Keep in mind that Daiya is quite greasy.  Add toppings of your choice and bake for 15-18 minutes.  Crust will not brown, but instead will be crispy and hard to the touch.  ENJOY!!!!!
