Healthy Pizza

Healthy pizza is not an oxymoron. Here is a healthy version from my favorite recipe site, Skinnytaste.com.

Healthy Pizza is Possible

Gina Homolka, founder of the site, provides this introduction to this healthy pizza recipe:
“I love the sushi pizza at a neighborhood restaurant, so I set out to make my own. After much trial and error and asking my Instagram followers for help with the crust, I finally landed on the winning recipe – it’s so good! Great with sushi-grade salmon or tuna and you can make the tortilla crust in the air fryer or oven.

They are dairy-free and gluten-free if made with Siete gluten-free tortillas but any tortillas will work. I’m obsessed with this spicy salmon sushi pizza made with spicy mayo, sushi- grade salmon, avocado, scallions, and jalapeño on a tortilla crust.

Spicy Salmon Sushi Pizza

Ingredients (makes 2 servings)

• 2 6-inch tortillas, gluten-free or whole wheat (I used Siete casava flour)
• 2 ounces avocado, from 1/2 small haas
• kosher salt
• 8 ounces sushi-grade salmon, or sashimi, skin removed and minced fine
• 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 2 teaspoons sriracha
• 2 tablespoons sliced scallions, divided
• 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon soy sauce or gluten-free tamari
• 1 teaspoon black and white sesame seeds
• 1 thin sliced jalapeño

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl combine salmon, mayo, sriracha, half the scallions, sesame oil and soy sauce.
2. Mash together the avocado and a pinch of salt.
3. Place the tortilla in the air fryer, and air fryer 400F 1 to 1 1/2 minutes on each side, until crisp. (I place a rack on top so it doesn’t blow around). Repeat with the second.
4. To do this in the oven, bake in a 425F preheated oven on a sheet pan 5-6 minutes, flipping halfway.
5. Place the tortilla on a cutting board, top with half of the mashed avocado. Divide the salmon and spread on top.
6. Lay on sliced jalapeño, remaining scallions and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
7. Drizzle with more soy sauce or sriracha, if desired. (Or use spicy mayo)
