Tikka Masala Veggie Pizza

MAKE THE SAUCE: Heat the olive oil on the pan. Once it shimmers, add the sliced red onion, and cook until they are lightly golden and starting to brown around the edges. Now add the minced garlic and cook it with the onions until it starts to brown slightly. Add your garam masala, cumin, turmeric, cayenne, and salt to taste. Cook the spices until they start to brown and smell aromatic. Add the tomato paste and brown the paste with the onions and garlic for a couple of minutes until it darkens in color. Now add the canned and crushed tomatoes, and cook with the spices/garlic/onions until the tomatoes darken in color and start to reduce slightly. Season the sauce with salt to taste. Transfer the sauce to a large mixing bowl and immersion blend until completely smooth, or blend it in your regular high speed blender.

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Remove the Banza Pizza Crust from the box, and spread about 1/4 - 1/3 cup of the sauce onto the pizza. Add the bell peppers, red onions, sliced tomatoes, basil, oregano, and red pepper flakes onto the pizza. Feel free to use your favorite toppings! Bake the pizza for about 15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown (I like to cook mine until well done, about 20 minutes). Enjoy!
