    Curried Chickpea Corn Pizza

    I don’t know about you but I like my pizzas loaded. The sweetness of the corn and the spice from the curry pairs perfectly with the creamy garlic tahini sauce to make a bold-flavored, insanely delicious vegan pizza.

    Pizza
     1 lb pizza dough*
     ½ tablespoon olive oil
     1 15 oz (425g) can chickpeas
     ½ cup (82g) frozen or fresh corn kernels
     1 teaspoon curry powder
     ¼ teaspoon ground turmeric
     ¼ teaspoon sea salt
    Garlic Tahini Sauce
     5 tablespoon tahini
     1 clove garlic, minced
     1.50 tablespoon lemon juice
     ½ teaspoon ground cumin
     3 tbsp water
     salt and pepper to taste
    Additional Toppings
     2 roma tomatoes, sliced thinly
     1 small red onion, sliced thinly
     1 handful cilantro, chopped

    To make tahini sauce, whisk together first four ingredients until combined. Add water, a tablespoon at a time, whisking until sauce reaches desired consistency, then add salt and pepper to taste.

    3

    Spread/roll the prepared pizza dough thinly onto the baking sheet, and brush with olive oil. Add tomato slices, chickpea and corn mixture, and red onion on top of the pizza dough. Drizzle with tahini sauce (reserve other half for serving).

    4

    Bake for 15-20 minutes, until crust is crispy brown on the outside. Garnish with cilantro and more of the tahini sauce, and serve immediately.

    • *You can use any store-bought vegan pizza dough (I used Trader Joes') or make your own.
