INGREDIENTS (makes 4-6 servings - very filling)
- store bought refrigerated pizza dough in a bag
- 2 Tbsp high oleic Safflower oil
- 2 medium onions, chopped into slivers
- 4 cloves of garlic, sliced
- couple handfuls of sliced mushrooms
- Tofutti Herbs and Chives Better than Cream Cheese
- pizza sauce
- 1/2 green pepper, finely sliced
- 1/2 red pepper, finely sliced
- couple handfuls of pineapple tidbits
- 1/2 package of Earth Island Vegan Gourmet Mozzarella Cheese Alternative, gently grated
- sprinkle of Mrs. Dash Garlic & Herb Seasoning Blend
INSTRUCTIONS
Allow pizza dough to come to room temperature before starting recipe (allows for easier handling).
Preheat oven to 425. Spray a large cookie sheet with oil. Drop the pizza dough onto the greased cookie sheet and spread out with your hands. When it is the thickness and shape you desire, poke several holes in the flattened dough with a fork. Bake in oven for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, bring a large skillet up to medium heat and add the oil and onions. Sautee for a couple of minutes, then add the garlic. Sautee for a couple more minutes and then add the mushrooms. Sautee together for 5-7 minutes. If your pan gets too dry, add a splash of water.
When the pizza dough is ready, remove from oven (but keep the oven on). Spread a couple tablespoons of the Tofutti spread onto the dough (like you were buttering toast). Next spread as much pizza sauce as you like on the dough. Then top evenly with the onion/garlic/mushroom mixture. Add your peppers and pineapple. Finally, top with your grated "mozzarella" and sprinkle the entire pizza with Mrs. Dash.
Place back in oven and bake for 20 minutes. When the 20 minutes are over, put your oven to broil and broil for 3-5 minutes (to allow the "mozzarella" on top the pizza to melt and brown a little).
Remove from the oven, slice up and enjoy!
Note: In Canada, Vegan Gourmet is made by Earth Island. In the USA, Vegan Gourmet is made by Follow Your Heart. Same company, same product, just different names.
