Vegetarian Rice Crust Pizza Recipes

Steps:

• RICE CRUST-----------------.
• Preheat oven to 400 F degrees.
• In a medium size saucepan, add rice and water or broth.
• Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for about 20 minutes or until all liquid is absorbed.
• Fluff rice with a fork and set aside to cool slightly.
• In a mixing bowl, combine cooked rice, beaten egg, mozzarella cheese and Tabasco sauce and mix well.
• Press mixture evenly into a lightly greased 12 inch pizza pan, covering bottom and sides.
• Bake in preheated 400 F oven for 4 minutes or until set.
• Remove from oven and let cool slightly before adding filling.
• VEGETARIAN FILLING------------.
• In a mixing bowl, stir together tomato sauce, garlic, 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, oregano, basil, Italian herb seasoning and black pepper.
• Spread sauce mixture over the bottom of the rice crust.
• Sprinkle over with 1 cup grated mozzarella cheese.
• Arrange sliced mushrooms, green peppers, red peppers, sliced tomatoes, and sliced red onion in layers.
• Sprinkle remaining 1 cup of remaining mozzarella cheese over top.
• Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
• Bake in preheated 400 F oven for 15 minutes or until cheese bubbles.
• Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
• You can also use chopped fresh broccoli as another vegetable.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Cut the cheese into large chunks that will fit in the shredder attachment of a food processor. Shred the cheese in the processor. Sprinkle cornmeal on a clean surface and roll out the dough until it is approximately 1/2-inch thick (should be about an 18-inch circle). Transfer dough to a pizza stone or rimless pan large enough to hold it.
• Spread the sauce over the surface of the crust, leaving approximately 1/2-inch of crust around the edge. Sprinkle the cut vegetables on top of the sauce and then sprinkle the cheese over the veggies.
• Bake for approximately 20 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly. Serve hot.
• Sift the flours together in a medium sized bowl. Place the yeast in a separate bowl and pour the warm water over it; let stand for about 5 minutes. Combine all ingredients in the bowl of a stand mixer with the dough hook attachment, mixing for approximately 5 minutes. Set the dough aside to rise for approximately 2 hours.
• Once the dough has risen, roll out the dough to a circle that is approximately 1/2-inch thick and about 18 inches in diameter.

Steps:

• Place the mushroom cap upside down on a cookie sheet. Spread the marinara sauce over the mushroom, and top with the remaining ingredients - just like a normal pizza.
• Bake in the oven at 350°F until the cheese melts and the 'pizza' is warmed through.
