"St. Patty's Pizza Pie" Before Adding Sauce

My "St. Patty's Pizza Pie" recipes from the world's first vegan pizza cookbook.  All 100+ recipes are no-fat and plant-based.  The St. Patty's Pizza Pie recipe calls for a wonderful "Barley, Navy Beans, and Horseradish" cheese-like topping sauce! 

Here's a photo of a slice of the finished pizza:

LAYERING INGREDIENTS:

• 1/2 cup carrots (sliced small julienne)

• 1/2 cup turnips (sliced small julienne)

• 1/2 cup parsnips (sliced small julienne)

• 1 cup diced cabbage

• 2 t. horseradish

METHOD:

1. Pre-heat oven to 425 or 450 degrees F. (depending upon your oven).

2. Put ingredients up to soy sauce into a non-stick (preferably) saute pan or wok. Bring to a slow boil, stirring to mix, and simmer on very low until most of the liquid is gone and the vegetables are still tender crisp. Drain, let cool to room temperature.

3. Arrange vegetable mixture on prepared and shaped dough.

4. Sprinkle on TVP Corned Beef Cubes.

5. Arrange onion slices on top of pizza.

6. Pour topping sauce on pizza.

7. Sprinkle on paprika (to taste).

8. Bake pizza for 15 to 20 minutes.

VARIATION:

• Use 3/4 cup carrots and 3/4 cup cubed potatoes instead of 1/2 cup carrots, turnips, and parsnips. Be careful not to overcook the potatoes or they will be mushy.

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 cup unflavored TVP cubes

• 1/4 cup red wine vinegar

• 1/4 t. ground pepper (or to taste)

• 1 T. Ketchup

• 1 T. red Tabasco sauce

METHOD:

1. Put all ingredients into a small pot, mix, and slowly bring to a boil.

2. Simmer on very low for 10 to 15 minutes, turn off the heat, and let cool. Drain if necessary.

VARIATION:

• Substitute TVP cubes with tempeh cubes, reducing simmering time to 5 minutes.

Barley, White Beans, and Horseradish Sauce

INGREDIENTS:

• 1/3 cup pearl barley

• 1 1/4 cup water

• 1 cup cooked white beans

• 2 T. corn starch

• 1/2 T. prepared horseradish

• 1/2 T. wet mustard

• 3/4 cup water

METHOD:

1. Rinse and drain the beans (to remove any salt).

2. Bring 1 1/4 cup water and barley to a boil, cover, turn down to very low, simmer, covered, for 30 to 40 minutes or less (until the water is absorbed). Let cool to room temperature.

3. Add all ingredients except the water to a blender or food processor, pulse a few times, and add half the water, pulse, and then the remaining water to blend until it's a smooth pancake-like batter.

NOTE:

• Makes enough sauce for two 12 to 14" inch pizzas (around 3 cups).
