Then top liberally with the Quinoa mixture.
Spread evenly, and top with orange slices.
Bake in preheated oven at 410 degrees F / 210ºc for 14 minutes. Broil on Lo for half a minute.
Take the Pizza out, drizzle the Jalapeno aioli on top and sprinkle liberal amount of chopped cilantro. (There is only some cilantro visible on the pictures to see the other toppings. I added a lot more before serving. The Cilantro works really well with the stew and oranges.)
