NOTES : Makes 1 medium pizza crust. Grated zucchini and carrot give a
confetti effect to this easy pizza crust. Salt is used to extract moisture
from the raw vegetables, making them easier to form into dough. Be sure to
rinse vegetables thoroughly to remove the salt and squeeze out excess
moisture before combining with other ingredients.
