Vegan Taco Pizza is going to be one of those nostalgic recipes for me. In my hometown we had that one pizza restaurant that everyone went to for birthdays, after we played a softball game or on a Friday night. As a kid, pizza was pizza, right? I definitely had the toppings I liked but wasn't too picky--unless it was Taco Pizza. Michael's Pizza in Urbana, Ohio had the BEST Taco Pizza I have ever had yet it wasn't over the top elaborate. It was just GOOD. I have enjoyed recreating this delicious childhood memory while keeping it simple but with animal-free vegan ingredients. What goodies do you need to turn my nostalgic Taco Pizza into a Vegan Taco Pizza? 1. Pizza Crust. I have not mastered my own pizza dough yet so I suggest using your own recipe or buy premade dough/crust like I do. For this recipe, I have used a whole wheat thin pre-made crust. Here are a few options of premade vegan pizza crust brands: Pillsbury Classic Pizza Crust (most chain grocery stores)Pillsbury Thin Pizza Crust (most chain grocery stores)Market Pantry Original Pizza Crust (Target Stores)Simply Balanced Organic Ultra Thin Pizza Crust (Target Stores)Simple Truth Organic Classic Thin & Crispy Vegan Pizza Crust (Kroger Stores)Mama Mary’s Original Pizza Crust (Wal Mart, Shop Rite & Publix)Mama Mary’s Thin & Crispy (Wal Mart, Shop Rite & Publix365 Organic Rustic White Thin & Crispy Pizza Crust (Whole Foods)Engine 2 Stone Bake 100% Whole Wheat Pizza Crust (Whole Foods) 2. Enchilada or Taco Sauce. This ones up to you. For convenience, you can purchase enchilada or taco sauce or you can make your own. I do both. The enchilada or taco sauce replaces the tomato sauce traditionally on pizza. 3. Vegan Cheese Shreds. My favorite shredded cheese for a pizza is Violife's Mozzarella Cheese. 4. Taco Meat. For this recipe, I season Gardein's Beefless Ground with a mix of taco seasonings. You can use your favorite meatless ground, including crumbled tofu or replace it with beans or refried beans. If you have a premade taco seasoning, you can use that. You will need 2 tbsp. 5. Lettuce. I like to use chopped romaine but iceberg or spinach could be an option. 6. Sour Cream. For convenience, you can purchase a vegan sour cream like Kite Hill's or you can use the recipe I give here which is my favorite, Tangy Lime Sour Cream. (The sour cream I linked is for double the amount of the one I give you in this Vegan Taco Pizza Recipe) 7. Tomatoes. Dice the tomatoes. You could also use cherry tomatoes. Slice in half or into quarters. 8. Green Onions. Slice thin. Optional Toppings You can serve these in addition to the lettuce, tomato and green onions on top of the pizza OR serve in separate bowls to allow your guests to personalize their slice.
