So, Emma and I were at the grocery store yesterday morning and I asked her what she’d like to have for lunch. Her response: pizza. Hmm… I know it was an honest answer because there wasn’t anything pizza related in sight. In fact, I have no idea where it came from aside from a craving. I thought it sounded pretty good too and I grabbed a pack of pizza dough (whole wheat, of course). On the way home from the store, I realized that I didn’t really buy anything to put on the pizza other than sauce so I started brainstorming all the things in our fridge and freezer that could fit the bill. Here’s what I came up with: tofu, basil, spinach. It basically turned into an inverted pizza (sauce on the top) and was actually pretty good. All I had was extra super duper firm tofu, which I thought would be too much for this, but not so. Once blended, it was a thick creamy consistency and it only tasted of basil and spinach. I’ll definitely be making this again.  Hers was just tofu and sauce, while mine was tofu, sauce, kalamata olives, green olives and roasted red peppers.  Definitely more tasty with all the stuff piled up on top!

Tofu Pizza

1/4 of a package of tofu (I guess that would be about 1/4 of a pound)

handful fresh basil leaves

handful fresh or frozen spinach (or kale)

1/2 clove garlic

Pinch S&P

Puree everything in a food processor or blender. Roll out your dough. Spread tofu mixture on top of dough and top the tofu mixture with marinara or pizza sauce (I used jarred). Top with your favorite toppings.
