Okay, so i'd love to take all the credit for this yummy pizza, but really I owe it all to Bob's Redmill! But still the combination of ingredients is so delish I even have had non vegans at my house opting to eat this beautiful looking pizza instead of the Dominos my roommates had ordered. Obviously you can just follow the crust directions and add whatever you want, but I like my combo ;p If you skip the cheese its still super tastey and soy free (If you do skip the cheese id recommended adding a few cooked chickpeas to give it more umph)
Jane's GF Vegan Pizza
Makes one small pizza (the crust mix actually has enough to make 2 pizzas though or one giant, feel free to double up on the toppings and make more than one!)
1pckg Bob's Redmill GF Pizza crust mix
1 pckg Vegan Gourmet Mozzarella cheese (optional)
2-4 handfuls of fresh baby spinach
1/2 bell pepper diced
1/4 red onion sliced thinly into strips
1/2 cup button mushrooms sliced thin
1/2 cup diced artichoke hearts
1/2 cup olives sliced (any kind you like)
2 tblsp flax meal
1/2 cup tomato sauce (or pasta sauce, I used safeway select onion and olive pasta sauce)
Follow the directions on the pizza crust mix, making sure to give the dough time to rise and also making certain to pre cook the dough! This step will make sure your crust gets completely cooked (those of you who cook gluten free know this is a constant issue with gluten free dough) I also found it was easier to shape dough if I kept soaking my hands in water.
Top with sauce. Then add spinach, then other toppings. Finally top cheese on top (you dont even need 1/3 of the brick of vegan gourmet to cover the small pizza but if you're a huge cheese fanatic go right ahead. I used very little cheese and saved the rest for pasta the next day and a second pizza)
Cook pizza about 15-20 minutes. Finally, to get that fussy soy cheese to melt stick it under the broiler for like 3o seconds or until the cheese really gets bubbling and browns a bit!!
Yummy! Curl up with a jack n coke and your favorite movie and enjoy a guilt free slice, or two, or five!!
