1
Set a pizza stone or a baking sheet on the middle rack of the oven and preheat to 500 degrees F.
-
2
Divide the pizza dough into 2 balls.
-
3
Put one ball on a heavily floured surface and roll and shape into a thin 11-inch circle with a thicker edge.
-
4
Transfer to a floured pizza peel or floured upside-down baking sheet.
-
5
Spread half the pizza sauce evenly on the dough round.
-
6
Top with 3 slices of salami and half the cheese.
-
7
(Make sure the dough, with all its toppings, can slide back and forth easily on the pizza peel; if not, add more flour.)
-
8
Carefully slide the dough onto the hot pizza stone (the dough may not be perfectly round when it slides onto the stone).
-
9
Bake until the bottom of the crust is lightly browned and very crisp and the cheese is melted, about 7 minutes.
-
10
Remove the crust from the oven, top with basil and sprinkle with some crushed red pepper.
-
11
Cut into 4 pieces.
-
12
Repeat with the second ball of dough and remaining toppings.

14
Bring 2 cups of water to a boil in a small pot.
-
15
Add the bulgur and quinoa and simmer for 10 minutes.
-
16
Transfer the grains to a fine-mesh strainer and hold under cold running water to stop the cooking.
-
17
Let the grains drain in the strainer for 15 minutes, then spread them out on a thick layer of paper towels to absorb any extra moisture.
-
18
Meanwhile, coarsely grind the flaxseeds in a spice grinder, just to break them open.
-
19
Stir together the warm water, agave and yeast in a measuring cup or small bowl.
-
20
Let sit until a small layer of foam develops at the top, 3 to 5 minutes.
-
21
(If this doesn't happen, discard and try again with new yeast.)
-
22
Whisk the flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt together in a medium bowl; add the foamy yeast mixture and olive oil and mix together with a stiff rubber spatula.
-
23
When the dough starts to come together, mix in the cooked grains, ground flaxseeds and sunflower seeds; form the dough into a uniform ball in the center of the bowl.
-
24
Be sure to scrape and use any dough stuck to the sides.
-
25
The dough will be very sticky at this stage.
-
26
Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and keep in a warm place until the dough has doubled in size, about 2 hours.
-
27
Lightly dust a baking sheet with flour.
-
28
Sprinkle a generous amount of flour on a clean, dry work surface.
-
29
Scrape the dough onto the floured surface and knead for a couple of minutes, working in just enough flour to make the dough less sticky but still moist to the touch.
-
30
Flour your hands periodically to prevent sticking.
-
31
Form the dough into one single ball or divide it into smaller balls.
-
32
Place the dough ball(s) on the prepared baking sheet.
-
33
Cover loosely with plastic wrap or a dish towel and let the dough rest for 30 minutes.
-
34
After the 30 minutes, the dough can be shaped and cooked as desired.
