If you ever want to know where your iron levels are, just go in to donate blood, and they will test it for you for free.
If your iron levels are good, but you don’t really want to donate, then just say you got scared and changed your mind. If you do go through with it, it’s not that bad, and they give you free snacks like a cute mini apple juice and raisins.
My iron levels are good, probably because I’ve been eating kale salad with tahini garlic dressing!

Crust
2 cups ground sunflower seeds

1 tsp curry powder
1/2 tsp turmeric
Sea salt to tasteSauce (my homemade vegan pesto!)
2 cups fresh basil leaves
3 cloves garlic
1/4 cup pine nuts
4.5 Tbs extra virgin olive oil

Pepper to tasteToppings (can use anything you want, really)
Grape tomatoes, halved
Baby bella mushrooms
Yu choy
Sweet onion
Red pepper flakes
Nutritional yeast (as you can tell, I love this stuff)Directions:
For crust: Put in food processor until desired consistency is reached. Spread on a lightly-oiled or parchment paper-covered pizza pan .For sauce: Put basil and nuts in food processor until desired consistency is reached. Slowly add in oil. Add seasonings, salt, and pepper last to taste.
Bake in over for about 45 min - 1 hour at 300 degrees.
So nutritious, wholesome, and rich. A heads up that the pizzas are not what you would expect from traditional “pizza,” and might not hold together as slices! A fork (and big appetite) is recommended. Thanks Brendan Brazier for the inspiration!
