fuck yeah vegan pizza

reblogged from veganjunkfood:

Three, foot-long pizzas from Pala, New York City. From closest to the camera to furthest away:
The Asparagi (Field Roast Italian veggie sausage, asparagus, cherry tomato sauce and Daiya cheese)
The Etna (eggplant, cherry tomato sauce, Daiya cheese/FYH soy mozzarella blend and basil)
The Funghi e Salsiccia (Field Roast veggie sausage, field mushrooms, Daiya cheese and hot pepper)
I think I just had a vegasm, especially for that Asparagi number. Which one would you get?

All of the above?

i hit up natural products expo west for a couple hours today and had a blast! i didn’t get to see everything, not even close—-talk about vegan overload!—-but i did sample some great new and classic products. most exciting were the little gardein sliders i posted about earlier, the temptation soft serve machine at the chicago vegan foods booth, and some insane new flavored vegenaise varieties from follow your heart. (i’m talking horseradish and tartar sauce!) mind blowing. ALSO, austin-based queso makers food for lovers (one of my favorite brands ever) has come out with a new killer chipotle mayo and will soon be releasing a fat free country gravy. already having fantasies about that. if the gravy is half as good as the queso, i know i’ll be adding it to practically every meal. 

one booth i didn’t make it to today, and i’m so bummed, is eat pastry. they make fantastic vegan cookie dough and have recently sent me samples of their new sugar cookie flavor. outta this world.

i know this isn’t as in depth as my previous expo west coverage, but i thought you all would enjoy a few snaps.


Pizza For BreakfastHomemade crust topped with apples (with just a bit of brown sugar), Field Roast vegan sausage, and Daiya vegan cheddar. I could eat this every day!
Made in the USA by me :) I also write The Vegan Kitchen blog
This is my second Vegan Pizza Day contest submission
[Apples and cheddar? Intriguing! Bet this works well with the Smoked Apple Sage Field Roast Sausages. (Which is probably what you used, lol! Captain Obvious, your presence is required on deck.) Via twolightsabovethesea! - ed.]

VEGAN CALZONES

I love making calzones!

I always use the recipe for tried and true whole-wheat crust as pizza dough from Peas and Thank You, with some extra additions like agave and dried herbs. So simple and easy.

For the filling, I whipped up my favourite tofu ricotta recipe (sans tahini and yes, I ate half of it before making my calzones I love it so) and pan-fried Smoked Apple Sage Field Roast sausage (I never ate sausage before I went vegan but damn, Field Roast is amazing) with some brocoli. 

My lovely roomate Erin rolled out the dough for me, because as you can see I’m pretty awful at forming things to bake, we jammed the pockets full with the tofu ricotta, sausage and brocoli along with a teeny bit of leftover arribata sauce (Trader Joe’s brand - not crazy about it but it does well in a pinch). We popped these babies in the oven at 400 for about twenty minutes and then DEVOURED THEM, dipping in more sauce (of course).

Two sausages, a handful of frozen brocoli, half the amount of tofu ricotta one block makes and one ball of dough makes two huge, amazing calzones. Check out the cross-section.

Oh calzones…

(Lower-cal calzone than traditional made with yucky meat & dairy!!)

Submitted under the heading, “CALZONES ARE EQUALLY YUMMY AS TRADITIONAL PIZZA.”

Why yes. YES THEY ARE!

…and everything in it.

reblogged from veganhophead:

My mother-in-law and sister-in-law celebrated the new year with my wife and I over a couple pizzas. My sister-in-law has a condition that limits her intake of acids, so I made up a white sauce made out of cannellini beans. For my personal, vegan pizza I did half tomato sauce and half white sauce with Field Roast Italian Sausage, black olives, green pepper, spinach, and a mix of Daiya and Tofutti mozzarella style cheese.
Vegan Hophead White Sauce
1 15oz Can Cannellini Beans 2 Cloves of Garlic2 Teaspoons Italian Seasoning1 Tablespoon Nutritional Yeast2 Tablespoon of flour for thickening.
Mix all ingredients in a blender. Blend until smooth.  Kick it up with a little crushed red pepper.
The white beans could be a good starting point for several things. I’m going to keep experimenting with it.

Nooch and beans, you have my attention!
