Last week I found this pizza crust at my local Tops Market that just happened to be VEGAN. It's also Non-GMO and Organic, too! They are long and rectangular and they come in two packs!
I was super stoked about these! I'm NOT a baker - it doesn't matter if it's sweets or bakey type things like crusts - I screw it up EVERY TIME...guaranteed! So finding these was like the sky parting and the heavens singing! Even better I was able to use what I had on hand to make the pizzas! Take a look at the additional photos below!
Starting with the first one...plan and simple...Vegan Cheese Pizza! Yup! That's shredded Daiya you are seeing! I used a simple pizza sauce that was also vegan. I liked that it only had just a couple ingredients in there, too! I probably put these in the oven about 2 minutes too long. They were really crunchy but that's ok because I like them that way.
Oddly - the leftover the 2nd day were even better and actually not as crunchy!
This was the 2nd pizza I did! I threw leftover spinach, corn, and 2 Daiya Cheeses on there. You can't really see the last bit of Jack Shreds I used but they are in there. I was going for more of a Mexican Pizza here and you will see in the next photo how I topped it off! I also sprinkled some minced garlic over top of this one, too! It was totally YUMMY! I enjoyed both but have to say I think this 2nd one was my favorite of the two!
All cut up and ready to eat! Yup! That is vegan sour cream you see there! It was SUPER YUMMY with the Vegan Mexican Pizza! And the corn really gave it that extra sweetness, too! I think next time I am going to add some Chipotle Ranch from Wildtree to the Vegan Sour Cream. I bet that would kick it up a notch, too!
So...what do you think about my thrown together - while using mostly leftovers - Vegan Pizzas - with new-to-me vegan crusts?
I was pretty giddy over all of this to me honest! It was a nice treat and I was able to eat it for a few meals!
I buy those crusts all the time...they make the simplest, most delicious pizzas! That Mex pizza looks killer. For some reason, in the past few years, I've started to love adding corn to everything (salads, soups, pasta, whatever). So good.
ReplyDeleteI live in a pretty rural area so this is the first time I have seen these crusts here. Sometimes I get so excited when I see a new-to-me product here! I'm totally with you on the corn! I have been the same way lately! I'm adding it to everything! It seems to make everything better, doesn't it? I think it also has something to do with it being sweet. I don't eat a lot of sweets so this is a good (healthier) substitute LOL
DeleteTwo years ago, my CSA starting giving me 5 - 6 ears of corn in the box per week. So much that we just didn't want to keep eating it on the cob, so I started cutting it off the cobs (which isn't as much of a pain as I had imagined) and adding it to stuff. Turns out, it does make everything better. That little crunch, that sweetness. Mmm. Now I buy it canned, frozen, fresh - however I can get it.
DeleteTOTALLY Agree! That's awesome that your local CSA is doing well, too!
DeleteI love Mexican pizzas! Maybe it's because I'm from the midwest, but I really love the idea of rectangle crusts!
ReplyDeleteI want both pizzas to be honest!!
They sure are a lot easier to cut/slice! I'm thinking of making a cheesy pizza sauce for a future attempt!
DeleteBoth of your pizzas look awesome! :) The crust sounds perfect; I'll have to keep an eye out for it!
ReplyDeleteLet me know if you find it locally!
DeletePizzas are the best! It is hard to find decent vegan pre-made crusts here. But I always keep an eye out. I can make a base (do you have Julie Hasson's Vegan Pizza, because the base in there is the easiest ever... but it takes time), but I prefer to just have one ready to go!
ReplyDeleteDid you eat your leftovers cold or warm them up? I think cold pizza is even better!
Cold pizza ROCKS! I agree! I have made the Wildtree dough before but I always make the dough too thick lol
DeleteThose pizzas look incredible! They made me hungry, ha! The Mexican pizza looks delicious, I bet corn on pizza is delicious. I wonder how it would be with a thin layer of refried beans instead of sauce. You are giving me all kinds of ideas, ha!
ReplyDeleteI will have to keep that in mind...refried beans on pizza! Nice! Thanks!
DeleteThey both sound perfect and made me hungry too! Very creative with the Mexican pizza, yum!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Now I'm wondering about other types, too!
