I’ve been making a version of this Veggie Pizza for One for years and decided to add it to the menu for our regular cook & chat… girls’ night in! series where Sersie and I go LIVE via Zoom and Facebook to cook something up and talk about whatever.
The crust for this pizza uses Ezekiel (Food for Life) brand sprouted grain tortilla found in the freezer section of your grocery store. It’s completely flourless with no yeast, added oil or added sugar. Its rich in nutrients—like iron, thiamin, niacin, zinc, selenium and manganese—and makes a great thin crust pizza.
Super Simple Marinara Sauce works beautifully on this pizza.
Now, the toppings on Veggie Pizza for One are mushrooms—I use shiitake, but you can use any type you want—along with baby spinach, onions, bell pepper, fresh basil, and pine nuts. I also like to drizzle a little aged balsamic vinegar at the end right before serving.
Veggie Pizza for One key ingredients
- Sprouted grain tortilla (Food for Life brand found in freezer section of grocery store)

- Fennel seed
- Crushed red pepper
- Spinach (or any dark leafy green)
- Mushrooms
- Bell pepper

You could also top with some Easy Vegan Parm Cheese or Tahini Cheese Sauce. If you like that briny salty twang, a sprinkle of capers should do the trick.
