Vegan Spinach Mushroom Pizza
Ingredients
- 2 Pizza Bases
- 1 Cup Cashews
- 3/4 Cup Plant Milk
- Juice of half a lemon
- 3/4 tsp Salt
- 2 Garlic Cloves
- 2 tbsp Nutritional Yeast
- 6 Chestnut Mushrooms
- 4 Handfuls of spinach
- 4 tbsp Pine nuts
- Fresh basil
- Olive oil
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 200C.
Make the cashew ricotta. Place the cashews, plant milk, lemon, salt, garlic and nutritional yeast in a high speed blender and mix for 30 seconds to a minute. If you don’t have a high speed blender you will need to soak the cashews in hot water for 30 minutes, and then drain.
Smooth the cashew ricotta onto the two pizza bases, leaving a cm gap around the edge.
Cut the mushrooms into slices and place on top of the ricotta.
In a bowl place the spinach and cover with boiling water until wilted. Drain and squeeze out excess water. Roughly chop and place on the pizza bases.
Scatter 2 tbsp of pine nuts on each pizza. Drizzle both pizzas with some oil and then place in the oven for 15-20 minutes. The crust should be starting to brown and crisp.
Finish with some fresh basil, black pepper and a drizzle of olive oil.
