MMMMM---------------------VEGETABLE TOPPING--------------------------
     3 c  Halved & sliced onions
     2 c  Thickly sliced mushrooms
     2 c  Broccoli stems & florets
     2 c  Cauliflower pieces
     4 tb Olive oil

 SAUCE: Saute carrots, onions, garlic & celery in oil for 5 minutes.
 Add seasonings & saute another 5 minutes.  Add sweetener, then add
 tomato puree & simmer 1 to 2 hours.  Should yield 7 c sauce.

 DOUGH: Dissolve yeast in 1/2 c warm water with sweetener.  Let stand
 till yeast starts to foam.

 Mix flours together & combine yeast.  Add oil, salt & rest of water.
 Knead to amke a medium stiff dough.  Divide into two pieces.  Lightly
 oil 2 large rectangular pans & sprinkle with cornmeal.  Roll out each
 piece of dough to an even rectangular shape.  Let dough rise (about 1
 hour). Prebake doughs for 5 minutes at 350F or till the gluten sets.
 Remove from oven.

 SPICE MIX: Mix spices together till well blended.

 VEGETABLE TOPPING: Mix vegetables together & saute them in the oil
 for 4 to 5 minutes.  Remove from heat & transfer to a second pan if
 not using immediately.

 TO ASSEMBLE: Spread about 1 1/2 c sauce on each crust.  Add about 3 c
 of vegetable topping & sprinkle 2 ts spice mixture over the top.  If
 so desired, spread 1 c shredded soy cheese over the top.  Bake at
 375F for about 10 minutes, longer if cooking from cold.  (I found it
 needed about 20 minutes or longer, so keep an eye on it).
