Ingredients

• Sauce:
1⁄4 cup natural peanut butter
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon sugar
1⁄2 tablespoon chili paste (Sambal oelek) 1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon lime juice
1 clove garlic, crushed
1⁄2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
1⁄2 teaspoon curry powder
Dash sesame oil
Pinch of brown sugar
•
• Toppings:
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1⁄2 cup diced red bell pepper
1⁄2 cup small broccoli florets
1⁄2 cup diced baked tofu (optional-see hints) 1⁄4 cup chopped green onions
1⁄4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
•


Directions

Hot sauce for drizzling (optional) Place all ingredients for the sauce in a medium bowl and whisk well tocombine. Set a side. Prepare toppings and set aside.
Spread the peanut sauce over the pizza crust and layer toppings over that (except for cilantro and hot sauce). Bake for about 12-15 minutes as directed in the Pizza Crust recipe (see above). Sprinkle the cilantro on before serving,and pass the hot sauce to drizzle on each individual pizza slice, as desired.
Hints: The baked tofu is entirely optional in this recipe. Flavored baked tofu is available in most natural food markets, or it is easy to make your own using the recipe below. Increase the amount of vegetables used if you decide to omit the tofu. “Chicken- flavored” seitan may be used in place of the tofu for a chewier texture.
