Raw Pizza with Black Olives and Bell Peppers

Let's be honest, this doesn't entirely taste like pizza per se but it does taste delicious. You could top this crust with just about anything or use the cashew hummus as a dip.

Pizza Crust
1-14" disc
1 large sweet potato, peeled
1 large yam, peeled
1 parnsip, peeled
1 cup raw walnuts
1 cup flax meal
1 tbl sea salt
1 tbl dried basil
1 tsp dried parsley
1/2 cup water
1 cup black olives
1 green bell pepper, small dice

Use a food processor to shred the sweet potato, yam and parsnip. Take off the shredding plate and put in the regular blade and process the vegetables into small-medium sized bites. Transfer to a bowl.
Process the walnuts and flax into small crumbs. Add to the bowl of vegetables and season with salt, basil and parsley. Slowly pour in the water while stirring until the mixture forms a dough.
Press a 1/2 inch thick layer onto your dehydrator tray and dehydrate at 115 degrees for 8 hours then flip over and dry 3 hours more until browned and crisp.
 
Cashew Hummus
yields 2 cups
2 cups raw cashews, soaked at least 2 hours and drained
1/3 cup raw sesame seeds
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp ground coriander
3-4 garlic cloves
juice from 1 lemon
1/2 cup water

Combine all of the ingredients in a blender and add water a little at a time until the hummus is smooth and thick.
