Ingredients
  

For the pizza dough

  • 1 lb store-bought or homemade vegan pizza dough

For the pizza sauce

  • 1/2 cup tomato sauce or pizza sauce (add more for saucier pizza)

For the toppings

  • 2 cups sliced mushrooms (such as cremini or button)
  • 2 cups spinach leaves
  • 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup vegan shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • sprinkle of red pepper flakes (optional)
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven according to the pizza dough package instructions or your homemade pizza dough recipe.
  • In a pan over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Add the sliced onions and cook for a minute. Then add mushrooms and cook until they release their moisture and start to brown. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Remove from the pan and set aside.
  • In the same pan, add the spinach and cook until wilted. Remove and set aside.
  • On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough to your desired thickness.
  • Transfer the rolled-out dough to a baking sheet or pizza stone.
  • Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a border around the edges for the crust.
  • Sprinkle half of the shredded vegan mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
  • Arrange the cooked mushrooms, wilted spinach, and sliced red onion on top of the cheese.
  • Sprinkle minced garlic evenly over the toppings. Add the remaining shredded vegan mozzarella cheese on top.
  • Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake according to the pizza dough package instructions or your homemade dough recipe, typically around 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing.
    Optionally, sprinkle red pepper flakes on top for some extra heat.
