When you reheat it, the 'crust' may get a little over-crisp with the extra baking, but it's not a big deal. Also, the sauce will dry out some more too, so you can dollop on a little extra if you want to keep it more moist!Dreenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16551890320761504899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19150019.post-1139351332083164962006-02-07T14:28:00.000-08:002006-02-07T14:28:00.000-08:00Dreena,Thanks for the help with the pizza.

I will answer you question anyhow, though, in case others are wondering. Long-grain brown rice isn't as sticky as the short. The short grain really helps make the pizza 'crust' stick together, otherwise it will crumble apart. The pizza sometimes crumbles a little with the short-grain, but not too bad. Of course, if you only have long-grain, then you can make the recipe and use a casserole dish instead of doing a pizza, so it's easier to scoop out. For the veggies, really just go with what you like, and it's nice to roast them, but you don't have to - so, zucchini, mushrooms, thinly sliced onions, artichoke hearts, olives, pineapple, chopped tomatoes, etc. Fresh herbs sprinkled on the finished pizza are great too!<BR/><BR/>Speaking of fresh herbs... LOVE that idea for the hummus sandwich, Julie. I don't use fresh basil much this time of year because it just isn't plentiful/in season here. But all you need for that sandwich is a few leaves... will have to try it! I'm so glad you find my blog fun and informative too!<BR/><BR/>And to the other Julie :) ... glad you liked the hummus!! I like the toasted sesame oil too, just a little different.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again for your WONDERFUL feedback, everyone! Enjoy Ryan's Veg Blog!Dreenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16551890320761504899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19150019.post-1139251326762479072006-02-06T10:42:00.000-08:002006-02-06T10:42:00.000-08:00I haven't been there yet, thanks for the heads up ...I haven't been there yet, thanks for the heads up : )jess (of Get Sconed!)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03050850188031153281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19150019.post-1139250145219380752006-02-06T10:22:00.000-08:002006-02-06T10:22:00.000-08:00Dreena, I found some short grain rice today, so yo...Dreena, <BR/><BR/>I found some short grain rice today, so you can ignore my other post about long grain rice.

He's had Veg Blog for years now, ahead of the times blogging before any of us heard the term I'm sure!<BR/><BR/>Danielle, I pretty much just visit Veg Blog and then many of the food blogs that we all seem to visit through blogger - many of the folks that comment here and a few others. I also listen to Erik Marcus' weekly podcast on Vegan.com and Bob and Jenna's "Vegan Freak" weekly podcast. By the way, they interviewed Ryan from Veg Blog on last week's podcast - you can listen at www.veganfreak.com. That's really all I can keep up with, in addition to cooking and being "mom"!!<BR/><BR/>Hey Carrie! Oh, I don't miss the huge snowfalls... hope it's not too bad there! I think I'm making my Brown Rice Pizza tonight - I'll post a pic later this week if so... soup is sounding good too though!<BR/><BR/>Michelle, what veg burgers do you like the best? We tend to go with Amy's the most. I try others and I'm just not pleased with them. Plus, I like that the Amy's California burger is an alternative to all the soy ones out there.Dreenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16551890320761504899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19150019.post-1139172520009740372006-02-05T12:48:00.000-08:002006-02-05T12:48:00.000-08:00i've never read VegBlog before either, thanks for...i've never read VegBlog before either, thanks for the linky ;) i'm making your lemon rosmary potatoes tonight to go along with our veggie burgers and salad!
