2 tablespoons cornmeal
1 pizza dough
1/2 cup Creamy Leek Sauce (below)
1 medium zucchini, diced
1/2 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 medium red onion, diced
Sea salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup chopped fresh basil

Pinch of ground nutmeg
2 cups Cauliflower Purée (below)

In a large saucepan, sauté the leeks over medium heat for 7 to 8 minutes. Add water 1 to 2 tablespoons at a time to keep the leeks from sticking. Add the thyme and nutmeg and cook for 1 minute. Add the cauliflower purée and cook over medium-low heat for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

3 cups cauliflower florets
3/4 to 1 cup water or vegetable stock
