1st layer:
Spiral slice (I used the Saladacco - but thicker noodles would totally work!!) 4-5 peeled zucchinis.

Place in a bowl with about 5 tbsp. nutritional yeast (the SAD recipe calls for eggs and cheese and butter in this layer to make the crust "stick" - the nutritional yeast combined with the water in the zucchs makes for the right consistency).

Set aside and allow to thicken.

2nd layer

"Ricotta" - I used Alissa's recipe!
2 c macs (I used cashews cause it was all I had)
1 c almonds
1/2 lemon juiced
1/3 c orange juice
1/3 c water

This recipe in genius!

3rd layer "meat" filling:
1-2 portobella mushrooms
1/2 c walnuts
1 tbps brown miso
1 tsp garlic powder or fresh garlic

(blend all in FP)

4th layer: Tomato sauce
2 1/2 C tomatoes
handful of soaked sundried tomatoes
1/3 c olive oil
garlic to taste (I used two cloves)
pinch - if you like - of sugar... or 1 soaked date
Italian spices to taste
sea salt to taste

(blend all in FP)

5th Layer: Mozerella topping (I skipped this in the recipe pictured)
Alissa has a great recipe for this!

Take "noodles" in nutritional yeast and form a "crust" in a 9 or 10 inch pie plate.

Then add layers (as numbered).

Dehydrate until desired firmness - I had to flub this a bit, as I have a donut shaped dehydrator - if I had one with shelves, I could make this more precise, but I think a couple of hours at the highest temp with which you are ordinarily comfortable would work well as a minimum). The best part of the SAD version is when some of the noodles get crispy in the oven - really can be served as a pie slice. So I encourage you to play with this in your dehydrator if you have a good one to achieve a similar result! (and then tell me the settings/time so I can do this when I finally get a decent one, of course :) )

Serve warm - or eat cold - I see view this like I do cold pizza.

Absolutely. Glad to share. =)

I would - if you eat it - add more N. Yeast to the noodles and let them sit a bit... to soak up the water (which you can see in the pic).

Regardless, it's YUM!

Glad to! I grew up with my grandmom's recipes - and this is one of them. I did my best to convert SAD to raw. =)

Can you use another kind of miso, like yellow or white?

And you should TOTALLY submit this to the book - my understanding is they are looking for more entrees... :-)

Thanks! Sounds amazing!

Yep - you can absolutely sub that. In fact, I used brown bean paste because I was out of miso, truth be told.

I did submit it, thanks. =)

Alissa has a great mozerella recipe in her book. I found it online at the green chef, so I assume it's safe to post:

Mozzarella Cheese

1 Cup
Macadamia Nuts

1 Cup
Cashews

2 Tablespoons
Bragg Liquid Aminos

1 1/2 Tablespoons
Lemon Juice

1/2 Cup
Water
