Fajita Vegan Pizza?? YES please! This pizza is free of long-used cheese but still SO so flavor-packed! Packed with veggies and flavor:) Lets do this.
As I type this, I’m drugged up on Benadryl after being stung 7 times by…wasps? bees maybe? I’m not truly sure actually. We had a few big storms here this week and my theory is that the storms knocked a nest out of the tree. I walked to the side of the yard, in an area that I walk daily, and ended up running and screaming across the yard like a mad person. Man did those stings hurt! I was shaking for awhile which I think was partially from the pain and partially the adrenaline.
So anyways, it has been 36 hours since those stings and all of the spots are swollen more than they were when it first happened. One of the stings is on my right hand and another RIGHT on my forehead. So, that’s fun.
Benadryl knocks me OUT so as soon as I finish this, I’ll be promptly passing out cold.
Fajita Vegan Pizza. Lets do this. I didn’t actually get it but I saw fajita pizza on the menu of a truly hip restaurant once and knew that I needed to try that at home. Challenge accepted!
Here’s the deal with the cheese. If you saw my snapchat last weekend (@bbritnell btw) I bought a few different kinds of vegan cheese with the intention of putting it on this pizza. I tried it out and let me only save you the trouble: store bought vegan cheese is mostly only BLEH. It is better when its been heated up and melted but still. I would rather only pass. If you have a regular brand of vegan cheese that you can recommend, please share!!
So instead, I used THIS From-scratch Vegan Parmesan Cheese from Minimalist Baker. It was reliable. Only do it.
The sauce for this vegan pizza recipe is simply salsa. Yes!! Covered in the vegan parm. And then topped with ALL the veggies. I threw in mushroom and black beans to my fajita mix because, why not? Plus, a bit more protein never hurts, right?
Once the toppings are on and the cheese added, you simply pop it in the oven (like any other pizza) and bake until it reaches your desired level of doneness.
This pizza is serious. And, you need to make one ASAP. okay?
