Yellow Crook-neck Squash and Fire Roasted Pablano Chile Pizza with homemade garlic tomato sauce. #vegan (Taken with Instagram)
That’s hot.
Sundried tomato pesto pizza topped with kalamata olives and tomatoes and zucchini fresh from the garden. This is from Sunday, but I’m having the leftovers for dinner! Admit it, you’re jealous.
A batch of the vegan parmesan from Lane Gold’s Vegan Junk Food. Just combine some nooch, walnuts, and olive olive in a food processor and pulse until chopped and blended. Put it on a pizza! Simple and delish!

You guys! Allow me to introduce you to the Baked Ziti Pizza from Lane Gold’s Vegan Junk Food, minus the ricotta. (We were fresh outta tofu, doh!) Super-yummy and probably easier to make than my own version.
But eating it? Every bit as messy! Next time I think I’ll try it with a more bite-sized pasta; elbows, maybe?
Vegan Eggplant Parmesan Pizza, with mozzarella Daiya and do it yourself vegan Parmesan cheese. (The secret ingredients? Nutritional yeast and ground walnuts.) ‘twas super delish, even with the wonky crust. (Yesterday was the one day in a hundred when the dough wouldn’t rise. Boo! Hiss! Boo!)
Recipes from Lane Gold’s Vegan Junk Food, which I love love love, and not just because I scored a free copy. (Two words: Sausage Gravy. Check and mate.)
Vegan Junk Food Giveaway Winners!
So many delicious entries, but only two winners!
Winner #1, chosen by the random number generator at www.random.org, is uselessfountain, whose favorite vegan junk food is “Deep Fried anything. Pizza bites, oreos, pickles, sushi. I have a deep fryer and there isn’t much I haven’t attempted to deep fry.” YUM. I bought a deep fryer last year but so far I’ve only used it on the usual suspects: french fries, mozzarella sticks, pierogies, that sort of thing. A few times I’ve considered deep-frying a candy bar, but it scares me a little. I’m afraid I won’t be able to stop. Deep fry ALL the things!
We continue our trend of deep fried goodness with winner #2, nefstead, who had me at doughnuts: “Probably my favourite that I’ve made myself would be cupcakes (see here and here), but those might lose out to the brain-meltingly delicious doughnuts from Voodoo Doughnut in Portland, OR. And well we’re in Portland eating vegan junk food, how about some poutine?” Every time I spy vegan doughnuts on my dash, I drool on myself a little. Alas, I’ve only ever had the pleasure of eating Ronald’s Donuts (le sigh). Happy aside: there is a baked donut hole recipe in Vegan Junk Food! (Note to self: try deep frying a ball or two.)
Congrats to the lucky winners! Drop your mailing addresses in my ask box and I’ll have those books out to you asap!
If you didn’t win, don’t despair! A brand spanking new copy of Vegan Junk Food can be yours for the low low price of $11.53! 32% off now through the publisher.
Thanks for playing!
A VEGAN JUNK FOOD COOKBOOK GIVEAWAY!
Last day to enter! I’ll choose and announce the winners this evening.
People! Allow me to introduce you to my new favorite cookbook, Vegan Junk Food by Lane Gold!
Jalapeno Bacon Poppers. Boston Cream Pie. Butterfinger Chunk Cookies. Spring Rolls. Beer Brat-Stuffed Portabello Mushrooms with Steak Fries. Mocha Cheesecake Brownies. Mac and Cheese Bake. Tortilla Chip Soup. Sweet or savory, from appetizers to desserts, this cookbook has got it all!
INCLUDING AN ENTIRE CHAPTER DEDICATED TO PIZZAS AND BREADS! You heard me right, folks! Baked Ziti Pizza. Spicy Onion and Sausage Pizza. Eggplant Parmesan Pizza. Deep Dish Hawaiian Pizza. Rosemary Garlic Potato Pizza. Barbecued Tempeh Pizza. Pizza Dough Garlic Rolls. Pizza Rolls. Do it yourself Vegan Ricotta and Cheese Sauce. AND MORE! Behold the culinary wonders of Vegan Junk Food.
When I saw the pizza & bread chapter, I knew I had to hit Adams Media up for a review copy, and they were nice enough to comply. Though Vegan Junk Food was released in mid-December, and I first contacted the publisher way back in November, it wasn’t until late January that I received my copy. The book’s proven so popular, you see, that it’s been on back order. Yay vegan junk food!
I haven’t had time to try out many of the recipes yet, but this past weekend the husband and I made the Pesto Chicken Pizza with Creamy Garlic Sauce. A.MAZE.A.BALLS!, y’all! The garlic sauce - actually pureed white beans - tastes like garlicky mashed potatoes. I could seriously eat it as its own meal, it’s so yummy.
All of the recipes look so delish that we had trouble choosing just one, but our lack of ingredients helped to narrow it down. (Seriously, we were short of one or two ingredients for nearly every pizza recipe. THE LUCK.) The Black Bean Taco, Thai, and Meatball pizzas are next up on our list!
The good news for you: Adams Media sent me three copies of Vegan Junk Food, so I have two to give away!
To enter to win, REBLOG THIS POST and describe your favorite VEGAN JUNK FOOD in the notes/comments. Can’t pick just one? Reblog multiple times (always with a different answer) for additional entries (but please, don’t be obnoxious about it. No spamming!) Likes are nice but don’t count.
The contest is open until Monday, February 27 at 4PM CST. I’ll choose one winner randomly and the second winner will be whichever entry most strikes my fancy. I love ALL the vegan junk foods, so don’t feel like you have to suck up by answering “pizza”!
Since I’m shipping these myself, the contest is open internationally. Remember to leave your ask box open so I have a way of contacting you. Once I announce the results, the winners have 72 hours to respond, after which time I’ll choose another winner. Good luck!
And…GO!

inwiththenoose asked: Got any tips for reheating pizza? I know that it will never be as good as fresh, but I've tried everything from the obvious oven to a cast iron pan to reheat and it never seems to get both the "cheese" back to a melted state and the crust warm/"crispy"
I almost always reheat my pizza in the toaster oven (or oven, if it’s more than a few slices) at 425 F for ten minutes or so. Of course the cheese never gets as melty as the first go round, but it usually gets warm and gooey at least. I find that it helps if you only cook the crust to a light, tannish brown color initially, ‘cause then you can reheat it for a little longer without worrying about scorching it. The cheese needs that little extra push, I think.
fwiw, tonight is leftover pizza night at my place!
