Cast Iron Cheesy Pizza

January 31, 2019

As we gear up for Super Bowl Sunday, we wanted to show all of you that there is no need to miss out on comfort food and party snacks! And let’s be honest… we can eat pizza all year round – no matter what the occasion is!

What is so awesome about this recipe is that the crust is so crunchy and soft at the same time – it’s everything and more that you need in a crust. It’s so important to have a good crust – no matter what pizza you are making! We also made sure we seasoned the pizza dough properly to get as much flavor as possible.

Now on to the toppings… we decided to use shredded non-dairy cheese, which you could find at your local grocery store! However, the secret is our homemade vegan parmesan cheese, which is blended nutritional yeast and slivered almond! You will not regret throwing it on top of your pizza! And let’s not forget freshly shredded basil, which adds that more natural and refreshing component to the pizza. Feel free to add your favorite toppings and ingredients – we have a feeling that our next pizza will have mushrooms on top!

If you try this recipe, make sure to let us know! Feel free to ask questions, write comments, and use our hashtag #LivinVegan on Instagram!

Check out the recipe below!
