Lightly oil a large baking tray and set aside. In a large bowl combine the flour, baking powder and salt and mix well. Add the oil and water, mixing until all the ingredients are moistened. Work into a dough with hands and knead for 5 minutes. Divide the mixture into eight pieces, rolling into small balls. Then, using a rolling pin, roll each ball out into a mini-pizza base measuring about 4 1/2-inches across. 2. Heat a dry, non-stick skillet on a low flame and cook each base on either side for about a minute or until slightly golden. Once cooked, place on the oiled baking tray. 3. To prepare the tomato sauce, saute the onion in the oil until transparent. Add the garlic and carrot and continue to saute until the vegetables are fairly soft. Then add the tomato or mixed vegetable juice and tomato puree and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Once cooked, mix in the herbs and salt. 4. For the Cheez sauce, place the pimentos in a blender, add the sunflower seeds, dill, lemon juice, onion, garlic and salt and blend. Whilst blending, slowly add the cashew nuts, until a thick, smooth paste is formed. 5. Spread the tomato sauce in a thin layer over each pizza base. Then add a layer of the Cheez sauce. Finally mix vegetables for the topping together, sprinkle on and bake in a preheated oven at 350F for 15 minutes.
