- Make the soy free sauce:rnDirections:rnBring all the SOY FREE SAUCE ingredients except pear butter to a boil in a saucepan over medium high heat. Add pear butter and stir to incorporate. Reduce heat to medium and allow sauce to simmer for 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Taste. Add more garlic salt if it is not salty enough for you, add more onion powder if it is not savoury enough for you. Reduce heat to low. Sauce is ready to serve.
- Make the Beet Pickle:rnWash, peel and grate the beets. Transfere the shreds to a small bowl. Stir in remaining BEET PICKLE ingredients with a spoon until evenly incorporated. Taste. Add more pear butter if you want it sweeter, add more onion powder for a more savoury flavour. Set aside until ready to serve.
- Make the cucumber pickle:rnGrate the cucumber. Place the grated cucumber in a bowl. Add the vinegar and onion powder and garlic salt. Toss the cucumber shreds with your hands to work the spices and vinegar through them. Set aside until ready to eat.
- Make the vegan spicy mayo:rnIn a small bowl, mix all VEGAN SPICY MAYO ingredients until smooth. Set aside until ready to use.
- Make ``Sushi Pizza`` Base:rnFill a saucepan with 5 cups of water. Bring the water to a boil. Add the rice grits, and millet grits. Stir for a minute. Add the cinnamon and chia and stir quickly to distribute. Reduce heat to medium low. Stir often. When the mixture starts to resemble cream of wheat, add the quinoa and stir it in thoroughly. Continue to cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure the mixture doesn't burn. Turn off heat. Add the spices and stir thoroughly to incorporate. The mixture should be like thick grits. Remove from the heat.

Spread out into a round disk shape about 2 inches thick.rnAdd a few dollops of spicy mayo on top of the rice mixture. Spread over top of the mixture like you are icing a cake using the back of a spoon.rnAdd avocado slices or squash mash if using on top of the mayo layer evenly.rnAdd half the steamed greens on top of that layer or the mayo if not using avocado/squash.rnAdd half the beet pickle on top of each serving. Add half the cucumber pickle on top of each serving. Garnish each bowl with the yellow beet slices. Serve with Soy Free Sauce either on the side or a few tablespoons lightly drizzled over each serving.
