Directions
Pizza Potatoes, A recipe entered to support the 2+5 Challenge held in the Veg*n Forum during December 2005-January 2006, These were super good They worked for both my needs (vegan) and my husband’s (celiac) and tasted great I was able to make them in less than an hour I sped up the potato cooking time by putting the slices in the microwave for about 4 minutes on each side I cooked the sauce in a saucepan on the stove Then, I just browned the potatoes in the oven for ten minutes or so while I made the bean cream and finished the sauce I had lots of cream and sauce leftover so I mixed them together and put them in the fridge Later I had that mixture with tortilla chips — sort of like a queso dip — and it was really good! I only put two onion slivers on each pizza and added two kalamata olive halves as well I think I will have fun experimenting with toppings when I make this again in the future Mushrooms would be good I told my husband he could put shredded cheese on his, but he didn’t even bother because they were so good!

Place Each Slice (12 Total For the 4 Potatoes Used) on a Large Non-Stick Baking Sheet and Bake in the Oven For About 40 Minutes Until the Inner Portions of the Potatoes Are Soft and the Cut Surfaces Are Beginning to Brown. While the Potato Slices Are Baking, Wash and Peel the Onions and Garlic. Dice the Onions, Crush the Garlic, and Put Into a Covered Baking Dish. Mix in the Pepper and Cook on "high" in Your Microwave Oven For About 3 to 4 Minutes Until the Onions Start to Become Translucent. |

When the Onions and Garlic Are Cooked, Add the Crushed Tomatoes and Oregano, Mix, Cover, and Cook For About Another 30 Minutes (mixing Every 10 Minutes) Until the Sauce Thickens. a Little Trick to Aid During the Thickening Process Which Allows Evaporation Without Splashing: Place the End of a Wooden Toothpick Between the Lid and the Baking Dish, With One End Sticking Out So You Can Hold It While Removing the Lid. When the Sauce Has Thickened to the Desired Consistency, Remove from the Microwave Oven. |
