Tempeh curry and lentil Hummus Pizza

Its not that warm here for outdoor grilling parties yet. So I have been whipping up a Pizza or 2 every now and then. Using wheat bases for some and trying out gf bases for some. The ones on this post are all glutenfree. Some were made a few weeks back and some recently. I thought I will put up a post with the pictures that I had.

The pizza bases in the pictures uses the White Oat loaf or Focaccia dough(both are almost similar doughs). It can also be replaced with my rustic wheat pizza base or the Everyday sandwich loaf dough. for a with gluten version.

For example, funding for research in organic farming would be cut to almost nothing, while corn growers, who have received $73.8 billion in subsidies in the last 15 years, would get even more now. Subsidized GMO corn is used to produce cheap high-fructose corn syrup, a substance that even Vice President Joe Biden says is more likely to kill an American than terrorism.

This heavily subsidized genetically modified corn is also fed to livestock in factory farms and feedlots — at unfairly reduced prices.

“Factory farms pose a serious public health hazard, so why are they subsidized by public money?” asks Food Revolution Summit speaker Dr. Neal Barnard. “These facilities pump out high-fat, high-cholesterol meat products and often pollute waterways — yet they also receive generous subsidies under the Farm Bill. We want Congress to stop rewarding facilities that endanger public health.”

These subsidies aren’t just costing U.S. taxpayers and enriching big agribusiness. They are also having a devastating impact on the health of millions of people.
