When the kids come to visit, I always make their favorites, one of which is vegan flatbread pizza. Because of they all like different topping, I make Vegan Flatbread Pizza 3 Ways to accommodate everyone and make it easier on myself.
Of course, the boys like vegan meat, and they like it hot, so I made one part of the pizza the Field Roast Chipotle Sausage and jalapeños. Luckily, I had one leftover from when I made Creamy Spicy Vegan Sausage Pasta, so I cooked it and crumbled it for the topping of now pizza. I also used my Skinny Oil-Free Pizza Sauce for the base.
Then, I used leftover pesto for the base of two of the flatbreads; my girls love pesto. But, some like it spicy, and some like it blander. To make the whole crew happy, I made another portion with mushrooms, onions, and basil. For the remaining portion of the Vegan Flatbread Pizza 3 Ways, I used grape tomatoes, banana peppers, and kalamata olives.
In addition, I made a huge Vegan Kale and Pasta Caesar Salad as a side dish for the Vegan Flatbread Pizzas.
Although I generally make my own Skinny Pizza Dough, today was an impromptu dinner, so I ran to Trader Joe's for my favorite pizza dough. If you would like to make your own dough, click on the recipe above. Otherwise, I highly recommend the Trader Joes' Crust.
Even though there appears to be a picture of a hunk of cheese on the package, this pizza crust is completely vegan! In fact, this pizza crust is so big, I made Vegan Flatbread Pizzas 3 Ways on one pizza crust.
