Pizza

A vegan twist on an old favorite, this recipe uses a flavorful nutritional yeast and almond "cheeze" for a unique and delicious flavor.

Serves 4

  • 1 large, ready-made Pizza Crust
  • 1 can Pizza Sauce (or Spaghetti Sauce)
  • 1 small, Red Onion
  • 1 Green Pepper
  • 1 can Mushrooms
  • ½ cup Parmesan Cheeze (see recipe)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut onions and green pepper into thin slices. Spread the pizza sauce evenly on crust and then add the sliced vegetables. Sprinkle the parmesan cheeze on top and bake for 11-15 minutes.

Variations: You can substitute the vegetable or add more. Good toppings are banana peppers, olives, pineapple, and imitation pepperoni slices.
