Pizza sauce replacement?. I was thinking about making a pita bread pizza, but I’m not a fan of pizza sauce, or any tomato based sauce really. I used to make my pizzas with a butter sauce, but that seems rather unhealthy so…
Any suggestions?

have you tried pesto?. a little of it goes a long way and it has basil (full of antioxidants), olive oil, garlic and pine nuts in it. It would be a good replacement for buttery sauces.
How far can you go in reducing fat?. Pine nuts are fatty and of course olive oil is 100% fat.
I was wondering just how much basil and garlic I can have with how little olive oil and still have it come out decent.
I bought a jar of Trader Joe’s Pesto a week ago and was stunned in looking at the nutrients – more fat per ounce than the alfredo cheese sauce that I’d tried earlier!
Use the art of substitution my dear…. Pine nuts IMO are optional…I don’t use them because I’m allergic to nuts. You could feasibly reduce the amount of olive oil and sub in cold water. With cold water alone it will be a bit thin, but we are talking about a spread here. Most pestos also have grated cheese in them (i.e. parmesan or some other hard cheese like asiago). So that can add fat too. Choosing a lower fat cheese will help too. A bit of cornstarch will help thicken it, or flour. Most of the “floury” taste will be overpowered by the garlic and basil. You might check fatfree.com or cookinglight.com, or even recipesource.com for low fat pesto recipes. Those are the main sites I use.
I’ve got one that incorporates broccoli. It’s one of the better ones I’ve tried.
I’m still not entirely sold on pesto…..
It’s the minty-ness.
Oh, I love broccoli!. Mind sharing some details?
Sure.. Here it is, as written. It has a lot of prepackaged stuff that I usually use fresh for…
1 cup boiling water
2 chicken bullion cubes (chicken stock better…)
1 10oz package frozen chopped broccoli, prepared according to package directions, drained (I use fresh)
1/3 cup grated Romano or Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves
2 tbs olive oil
1/2 tsp bottled minced garlic (I use fresh)
1/8 tsp coarsely ground pepper
Combine water and boullion in small bowl; stire to dissolve. Place boullion mixture, broccoli, cheese, basil, oil and garlic in food processor or blender; cover. Process until smooth to form pesto.
Recipe from very best baby.
I like Jess’s pesto idea, or. you could make a veggie sauce (carrots, spinach, celery, etc)
or you could use hummus
or use a thick sweet potato or butternut squash bisque, and brush the crust with that
or an olive tapenade
Get a pot of water boiling.. Then make a pot of water with ice in it and put it on the counter. Take three or four good sized tomatoes and put them in the boiling water for one minute. Use a big spoon as to not get scalded. Then with the spoon put the tomatoes in the iced water to cool. The skins will just peel off easy. Slice the tomatoes and put them all over the top of your pizza leave no spaces uncovered. Brush olive oil all over them. Use what ever topping you like and bake the pizza. Yum.
she says she doesn’t like tomatoes §.
I guess I do have a tin ear. Sorry.. I thought sauce and tomatoes would be different.
We use either pesto or roasted red pepper pesto. There’s a pizza place in town that uses hummous of some variety… it is SO good. I haven’t tried using hummous from the grocery store myself, though…
Thanks : ). Well hummous sounds like the best combonation of taste and nutrition so far, so I’m going to go with that. I’ll let you guys know how it turns out.
I like. hummus. I like to use ff feta, tomatoes and spinach as toppings.
Pita bread pizza ala Caesar. You could always do a Caesar dressing sauce with blanched spinach and feta cheese.
Well,. sauce isn’t necessarily needed at all.
However, how do you feel about bbq chicken pizza? Teryaki chicken?
You can do pear and gorgonzola, capers and Italian antipasti, feta, garlic, and olive oil.
For a variation–you can make a paste with ground chicken or turkey or lean beef or buffalo or lamb, grated onion, tomato paste, minced parsely, chopped tomatoes, salt, and pepper (and a little bit of water.) Spread a thin layer of this completely over the pita–otherwise it burns at the crust–and bake until the meat mixture is cooked. This is a Turkish style pizza–goes well with sliced onion, lemon juice, and sumac.
I like using hummus. topped with lots of different veggies. Sorta mediterranean like. It’s fun experimenting with all the different flavor hummus too.
