Dairy free vegan pizza recipe
A vegan pizza recipe does not just have to be about trying to mimic cheese, if you use certain ingredients a pizza can taste fantastic even without using cheese.
This does not mean using multiple herbs and spices and different vegeables but just a simple combination of ingredients, if chosen right these ingredients can taste fabulous vegan or not.
Chef uses the wonderful combination of smoked tofu and mushrooms along side the basic tomato sauce and garlic.
Some smoked tofu tastes so good that it could almost be a smoky sausage but without all of the saturated fat. Tofu is high in protein, low in fat, has zero cholesterol and of course tastes great alongside the humble mushroom.
This is an easy recipe to bake as Chef uses a simple basic brown bread recipe to use as the base of the vegan pizza.
