Pizza bites: wonton edition. Daiya, crushed tomatoes, fresh cilantro, basil, chives, and parsley went into the sauce along with: vinegar, canola oil, black pepper, red pepper and garlic. Put through a hand-cranked food-processor and wrapped neatly in wontons, then deep fried!  [Little deep-fried bites of heaven via sssquid / the vegan squid! - ed.]

Reblogging ‘cause this make me feel all shiny inside! Hello hello to all of our lovely new followers. I hope your visit is filled with puppies and unicorns and rainbows and vegan pizzas! Or how about a puppy eating a piece of vegan pizza while riding a unicorn as she jumps over a rainbow? Completely of her own free will, because unicorn racing is fucked! And of course the puppy is happy to share his pizza with you, since puppies are the best. Yeah, THAT. While I’m happy dancing, I will also wiggle my butt to these nice little mentions we got on Jezebel (that’s big shit, right?) and Louzilla Lovegood Letters (who makes the biggest, gayest, most beautiful and awesomest cakes you’ve ever seen). Smiles all around! (By the by, for more pics of the Thanksliving pizza, feast your eyes here. Also at that url: links to the recipes.) reblogged from vegansaurus: Happy Thanksgiving from Kelly of Fuck Yeah Vegan Pizza and her UTTERLY BONKERS Thanksgiving pizza. She says, she and her husband made pizza “layered with garlic and chive mashed potatoes, gravy, hickory-smoked Tofurky deli slices, carrots, sweet corn, and green beans, all on a veggie broth-infused crust. Served with sides of stuffing, extra gravy, homemade cranberry sauce, and mashed potatoes and mixed veggies (both left over pizza toppings)…. IT WAS INEVITABLE.” Kelly is a national treasure, you guys, and if you aren’t following (and submitting to!) Fuck Yeah Vegan Pizza, you are doing the internet wrong.

My Thanksliving Day eats, in all their carbalicious glory! The Thanksgiving Pizza came out smashingly; I’m super-glad we decided to do a test run, since this gave us a chance to tweak the recipe. The assembly was still a little messy, but not the hot mess of last week. Anywho, this pizza features a layer of garlic and chive mashed potatoes mixed with gravy, followed by hickory smoked Tofurky slices, more gravy, and carrots, sweet corn and green beans. As much as I would have loved to have thrown some stuffing directly on the pizza, Shane and I couldn’t figure out how to properly cook it together with the pizza – since the breadcrumbs need to marinate in vegetable broth and all – so instead we gave the crust a hint of stuffinf flavor by infusing it with veggie broth. And, for bonus points, we served stuffing on the side, along with extra gravy, homemade cranberry sauce, and mashed potatoes and mixed veggies (both left over pizza toppings). For dessert, we dined on razzleberry pie topped with vanilla ice cream. Both store-bought, since we were exhausted enough after cooking the main course to even think about making the sweets by hand! You can find recipes for all of the homemade items (PIZZA INCLUDED!) here.  Two slices down, six to go! Shane’s plate; he slathered his stuffing in cranberry sauce. Personally, cranberry sauce – being sweet and sugary and all – strikes me as more of dessert item. Which is why I enjoyed a few spoonfuls with a bowl of vanilla ice cream while waiting for the dough to rise! But I digress… My plate! “Gravy” is the word of the day, dontchknow. The only time it’s acceptable to eat a pizza with a fork is when it’sa) covered in mashed potatoes or b) a deep dish pie of some kind. Licking my plate clean! Bring out the pie! Pizza & ice cream, could a more perfect pairing exist?

Experimenting with a Thanksgiving Pizza!

You heard me right people! Shane and I made a holiday pizza tonight and it was YUM-TASTIC! Gravy, Tofurky slices, garlic and chive mashed potatoes, carrots, even a crust flavored with veggie broth - this pizza has it going ON! If these pies were able to withstand the vagaries on the US postal service, I’d send several each to every lucky Jane and Dick on my x-mas list come December. AND LEAVE THEM BEGGING FOR MORE!

Unfortunately, our execution was less than stellar - my Facebook status from earlier tonight was full-on panic mode, to wit: “emergency alert: pizza disaster in progress!!!” - so I don’t yet have a recipe to share with y’all. BUT. The good news is that we know where it all went wrong and are trying again come Thursday! So probably you’ll have a proper recipe by the weekend.

Until then, feast your eyes:

(The final product will be topped with a variety of mixed veggies; if this pizza looks a little sparse, it’s because we had all but given up by the time we got to the last layer. The dough gave out on us and we needed to get the pie in the oven, asap. NOTHING THAT TWENTY MINUTES AT 425F CAN’T FIX!)
