Raw pizza recipe with spinach sauce

Many raw pizza recipes, while delicious, are very heavy because of the nuts that are usually being used to make it. This recipe is devoid of any nuts whatsoever! The dough is light on the stomach and tasty. It’s made of zucchini and sprouted buckwheat. For the top, we will use raw spinach sauce. The sauce is prepared in 5-10 minutes and is very healthy and delicious.

If you know that you are going to prepare a dish which will involve a raw dough, like pizza, why not prepare dough for the whole week? We usually need 1-2 days to prepare our food for most of the week; it is much more effective this way.

Please note: We always say this recipe is for two people, but the actual volume of the dough is for six. Why? Because in this way, you’ll do the dehydration process only once, and you’ll have meals prepared in advance for various combinations. For example, use the same dough for bread, and you can eat it the next day as a side dish or afternoon snack.

Raw dough for pizza

Preparation time: 15-20 min.

Soaking: over night, or 6-10 hours

Dehydration: 8-12 hours

Ingredients for 2 people (for 3-5 meals):

35 oz (1 kg) of zucchini

17.5 oz (1/2 kg) of buckwheat soaked overnight

3 medium garlic cloves (or as you like)

1/2 teaspoon of sea salt

3-5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

1 fresh-squeezed lemon

2 cups of ground flax seeds

Methods/steps –

1. Put the buckwheat into a jar and cover with fresh water. Soak it over night. After that, wash well a few times.

2. Slice zucchini into small pieces.

3. Put the zucchini into a food processor and process well.

4. Put the buckwheat, salt, olive oil, and lemon into food processor and mix well with the zucchini.

5. Grind flax seeds in a clean electric coffee grinder; grind until powdered.

6. Put ground flax seeds in food processor with other ingredients and process until well combined.

7. Spread out on dehydrator sheets in any shape you like, and mark the dough (best with a pizza cutter) into handy pieces. Thickness: 0.5 inch (~1 cm). You should be able to fill 4 regular trays (15” or 38cm) with the dough. Dehydrate at 115ºF (46ºC) for 4-6 hours. When the top feels dry to touch, flip and continue drying on the other side. Let dry another 4-6 hours until dry.

8. When dry, store in refrigerator in a sealed container. Stays good for 7 days, maybe more, we’ll never know, because it is eaten up too soon.

Options:

Instead of flax seeds, use chia seeds.

Let buckwheat sprout 1 or 2 days; it adds to live-food-value.
