Sourdough Pizza Toast is a great dinner option for the family because it's quick to make, you can load up on nutritious toppings like proteins and vegetables, and kids love it. We like to use mozzarella, parmesan, or a dairy-free cheese. Add veggies like green peppers, mushrooms, spinach, or olives, and proteins like shredded chicken, sausage, or vegan meat. Instead of using a store-bought pizza sauce, you can make your own by doctoring up a canned tomato sauce with basil, oregano, garlic, and a pinch of sugar. 

Choosing a Sourdough

If you're making pizza toast, sourdough is a great bread option. It's more hearty and flavorful than other breads. Plus, it uses fermentation which creates beneficial bacteria and increases the bioavailability of nutrients. 

We're using Bread SRSLY's gluten-free and vegan sourdough pullman loaf. This loaf isn't pre-sliced, so you can more easily bake in the oven and then slice into triangular pizza shapes. Enjoy a bread that's easier to digest and made from wholesome ingredients with Bread SRSLY!
