“One-Stop Shop” Vegan Pizza
I love one-stop shop recipes since, just like you, I don’t have time to fly all over the place looking for ingredients. This recipe is super simple and very cheap! Where do you go to get everything? Why…my favorite grocery store of course – Trader Joe’s! $1.19 for the dough, $3.65 for a big bag of vegan cheese…can you beat that?! This pizza has an awesome fresh taste and no feeling of post-pizza guilt!
Vegan
Preparation Time: 30 Minutes
Ingredients:
- Whole Wheat Ready To Bake Pizza Dough
- 1/3 Cup Pizza Sauce
- 1/2 Cup Vegan Mozzarella Shreds
- 8 Large Black Olives
- 1/3 Green Bell Pepper
- 1/3 cup White Onion
- 1 Roma Tomato
- 8 Medium White Mushrooms
Instructions:
Take dough out of refrigerator and allow it to rest at room temperature for 20 minutes. In the meantime, you can start cutting your veggies. I like a more rustic finish to my pizza so I make my cuts larger. Once the dough has rested long enough, go ahead and start preheating your oven to 350 degrees. Using a 12-inch sprayed pizza pan work dough to fit the pan. A trick I use is to hold the dough up with both hands to allow it to stretch – each time the dough stretches adjust your hold so that the dough stretches evenly on all sides. Once the dough is stretched enough, you can press it out on the pan the rest of the way.
Once your dough is set up on the pizza pan, add your sauce and spread evenly leaving about an inch of room on the outer circumference for the crust. Add your chopped veggies, then spread your mozzarella shreds out to cover the veggies.
Once your oven is preheated to 350 degrees, set the pizza on the lowest rack and time for 12-15 minutes – a longer bake time will give a crispier crust.
Once finished, allow your pizza to cool for 5 minutes, then cut to desired size and enjoy!
