Our Vegan Buffalo Chickn Pizza delivers all the tender and juicy chew you’d expect, minus the meat but fuelled with flavour. In this recipe, we’ve substituted chicken for a new player: soy curls. Made of non-GMO soybeans and sold dehydrated, all soy curls need are a quick soak in veggie broth to be game-day delicious. When they plump up, they’re ready to be tossed in paprika, garlic powder, and maple syrup for serious flavour action. These meatless bites pair perfectly with non-dairy goat-style cheese, non-dairy mozza shreds, and a classic buffalo chickn toppings like green onions, celery and non-dariy sour cream. Go for extra points with a kick—add hot sauce and spicy guac on the side.
Even if your home team this season is just you and the people you live with, you’ll be MVP with this zingy, zesty ‘za on the menu!
