Notes

• You can “hide” any veggies you would like within the sauce, just confirm that they're around 1 cup in volume (or 150 grams) before you sauté them – great if you would like to waste fewer vegetables because you'll just spend all of your soggy ones!
• Make sure to not use an excessive amount of vegetable filling; rather, leave a number of it to make a tomato-y dipping sauce!
• For a really flavorful dough, add some dried Italian herbs to the flour and salt mixture.
• Add chopped bell pepper, dried or fresh tomatoes or olives to your filling to make more texture!
• You might got to add a touch more flour if the dough is just too sticky. Making it a couple of hours or maybe 1-2 days beforehand makes the pizza dough even more flavorful.
