Vegan Pizza
- 1 medium onion, sliced
- 1-1/2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
- 1/2 cup sliced sweet red pepper
- 1/2 cup sliced green pepper
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
- Pizza dough, homemade or store-bought
- Cornmeal
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce
- 2 medium tomatoes, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup shredded dairy-free Parmesan-flavored cheese
- 1/4 cup loosely packed basil leaves, thinly sliced, divided
Step 1: Roast the vegetables
On a rimmed baking sheet, combine the onions, mushrooms, peppers and garlic with oil and dried herbs. Toss with your hands to combine. Roast in a 425°F oven until crisp-tender, about 10 minutes.
Step 2: Prepare the dough
Roll the dough into a 15-inch circle. Grease a pizza pan with oil and sprinkle with cornmeal. Transfer the dough to the pan, building up the edge slightly. Immediately place in the oven and bake until lightly browned, 12 to 15 minutes.
Step 3: Assemble the pizza
Transfer the roasted vegetables to a cutting board and chop coarsely. Spread the pizza sauce on the crust and top with the roasted vegetables and tomato slices. Sprinkle with cheese and fresh basil.
Step 4: Bake the pizza
Bake until the crust is golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes longer. Garnish with extra basil, slice and serve.
