I have been making homemade pizza for years and once would have considered it one of my signature dishes. It’s one of those things that can’t really go wrong! Realising that pizza is just as delicious without cheese was one of my turning points to going vegan. I don’t usually add an alternative cheese unless I’ve got a little sprinkle of a really good vegan cheese, ideally a blue. I tend to use lots of fresh and dried herbs, a drizzle of chilli, herb of garlic oil as an alternative. Oh, and a definite yes for pineapple!
This recipe is a combination of my pizza, pide and za’tar breads as I’m running out cookbook space! #mycookbook

Steps

1 hour 30 mins

1

Pre- hear oven to 220c. Take your ball of dough and flatten to make your pizza shape. Place on a non-stick baking sheet or pan suitable for oven use.
2

You can use a tomato topping (see recipe for tomatoes, caper, garlic and olives) or like in this case, you can make a fresher white pizza. Drizzle the veggies with a little olive oil, sprinkle with crushed garlic and pile on top of the pizza. Do not cook the cucumber or the soft herbs, you can add these at the end.
3

Cook until the base is cooked. If using a pan you can start this in the job if you wish to get a crispier base. This will take about 10 minutes, be careful the veg doesn’t burn or dry out. When cooked, drizzle with fresh herb, diced cucumber and tomato and a squeeze of lemon and zest to serve.

@rachel_madewithplantsI love to cook vegan, seasonal, plant-based dishes. For me, cooking is fun and I particularly love a challenge! I’ve always loved to cook, but it wasn’t until I became vegan that I became really excited about creating recipes. I realised that the old cooking ‘rules’ were not rules at all and you can be as creative and imaginative with food as you like; I’m a true veg lover and I’m known for trying to ‘veganise’ anything and everything 🌱
