We made this tasty vegan pizza while at the beach and it was so good! It’s easy to make homemade pizza and it still gets a crispy crunchy crust from the oven at a high temperature. I love eggplant and mushrooms on pizza, but I’ve never had the Gardein crumbles on pizza before. If you usually like ground beef on your pizza, this still give you the same flavor and texture, but it’s way healthier. My family agreed they would totally use that instead! I usually don’t even add vegan cheese when I make pizza at home, but know Josh likes it better with some kind of vegan cheese so I bought the Follow Your Heart Vegan Mozz Shreds and it was good! Of course we used Rao’s Marinara because it’s the best ever so it ended up being better than any vegan pizza we could have bought there.
