I paid a long overdue visit to the friendly folks over at Viitals today. I was in the mood for more pizza and thought it best to baby step my way to homemade. Viitals offers pre-made, gluten-free pizza crust locally at their cafe AND they’re willing to ship if you’re not so local.
If you recall, I had already sampled this dough at Gourmet Pizza Company on New Years and knew it was a sure shot to goodness.
I ran my plan by Silvia, the owner, and she suggested that I brush the crust with garlic and olive oil.
So I did.
I spooned a layer of homemade sauce on the crust, topped with a layer of spinach, spooned a little more sauce, and then added sliced baby bellas.
I baked the pizza in a 425 degree oven for 15 minutes and sprinkled with nutritional yeast.
It was the first time this year that I missed cheese. It was really good, but it would have been AMAZING with some mozzarella and feta. So here I am, 16 days into the no-meat, no-dairy new year, missing real cheese pizza.
I’ve found the perfect crust, now I just need the perfect vegan cheese. Suggestions please!

Have you tried Daiya? I think it is the best non-cheese out there…
What is that crust made out of? Looks good!

No, I haven’t! Can you buy it at Whole Foods? The list of ingredients is listed here http://www.myhighproteinsnacks.com/online-store/gluten-free-bread-pizza-crust.html#gluten-free-pizza-crust.
