Vegan Pizza Sauce is Delicious!
We made pizza last night kind of at the last minute after realizing we had everything to make a fantastic gluten-free vegan pizza crust (recipe coming!).
It was so simple yet so delicious I wanted to make a short and sweet recipe post for it. Just a bit of nutritional yeast makes it slightly cheesy.
Great on your Favorite Vegan Pizza!
This sauce was awesome on a simple vegan pizza with sliced DIY Beyond Brats, a little pineapple (don’t judge!), and Daiya Mozzarella Cheese Shreds.

This is, not kidding, the best vegan chili I’ve made to date. It’s thick, rich, hearty, as well as easy to make and, with an Instant Pot or slow cooker, almost effortless once everything is chopped up.
