I could eat this every day! |
I've almost made meal planning an extreme sport because I want to make sure my body is getting everything it needs.
I also don't want to wind up starving without something on hand to eat because I know that could result in desperately eating something I don't want to consume. You know, block of cheese in the closet. Showing an entire cupcake in my mouth. Fast food.
Therefore, the vegan pizza I made this weekend might be the meal I'm most proud of so far.
When I went to the grocery store I had a vague idea about pizza but no real plan. I ended up buying
chia seed flats as a "pizza dough" because I like crispy crust and because I knew they were vegan. And, I picked up some vegan mozzarella cheese. That's as far as the planning went.
The results, below, were spectacular. So great in fact that The Carnivore told me I should make all of them again! That, friends, is even better praise from him than telling me it looks good.

Then I made the toppings. All were roasted in the oven for about 25 minutes. The butternut squash was roasted the day before.
