    I don't think there's a person in this world that doesn't like pizza! It's one of those meals that's a definite crowd-pleaser. The topping options are endless, and when making your own, you can add as much or as little as you wish.

    Making homemade pizza is easy, simple and in my opinion, the best way to do pizza! Mainly because you can load up on the best part, the toppings! Plus, by making your own, you know exactly what's in the crust and sauce and where your produce or meat came from.

    In our house, this Buffalo Chickpea Pizza is made on repeat! I love it because I can indulge without feeling heavy, crampy and bloated, much like a regular cheesy, glutenous pizza would cause me to feel. This pizza is not only gluten-free but grain-free, dairy-free and vegan! It's loaded with nutritious toppings, packed with flavour and features a dreamy garlic sauce that makes you forget cheese ever even existed. Not to mention, the flatbread crust is to die for!

    THIS RECIPE IS...


    • Vegan
    • Gluten-Free
    • Grain-Free
    • A Great source of Fibre

    Instructions

    Flatbread

    • Preheat oven to 350°
    • Line baking sheet with unbleached parchment paper
    • Mix dry ingredients together.
    • Slowly stir in water until the mixture becomes the consistency of a thick pancake batter.
    • Spread evenly on baking sheet
    • Bake for 15 minutes.
    • Remove from the oven and set aside.

    Roasted Buffalo Chickpeas

    • Preheat oven to 350°
    • Line a baking sheet with unbleached parchment paper.
    • In a bowl, combine chickpeas, oil, salt and spices. Mix well, making sure the chickpeas are evenly coated.
    • Pour the chickpeas onto the baking sheet and bake for 25 - 30 minutes.
    • Remove from the oven and set aside.

    Roasted Buffalo Cauliflower

    • Preheat oven to 350°
    • Line a baking sheet with unbleached parchment paper.

    • Pour the cauliflower onto the baking sheet and bake for 10 - 15 minutes.
    • Remove from the oven and set aside.

    Creamy Garlic Sauce

    • Soak cashews overnight or in hot water for at least 20 minutes.
    • While cashews are soaking, heat oil and garlic in a small saucepan over low.
    • Cook until garlic begins to brown.
    • Drain and rinse cashews.
    • Add Cashews, oil and garlic mixture, along with the salt and water to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth.

    Pizza

    • Preheat oven to 350°
    • Coat the flatbread crust with a generous amount of garlic cream sauce (I usually use about half of what the recipe makes and save the other half for dipping!).
    • Add the rest of the toppings, adding as much as you like (or as much that fits).
    • Place in the oven and bake for about 15 minutes, or until the edges of the crust begin to brown.

    Notes

    This pizza is also delicious baked on the BBQ!

    It’s looking like we’re in for another frosty It’s looking like we’re in for another frosty weekend 🥶

But, there’s nothing like warming up with a comforting bowl of Soup! This Creamy Dairy-Free Roasted Tomato Soup is always a go-to for me when the temperature drops low.

With minimal real-food ingredients, it’s so simple to make and is packed full of flavour. 

Plus, it’s delicious topped with a dollop of cultured cashew yogurt or cream!

And it’s completely vegan, gluten-free and contains no added sugars.

    This balmy October weather is making me reminisce This balmy October weather is making me reminisce over this delicious Peach Pie Filling that was made and devoured on repeat during that decadent time of late summer.

And in actuality, autumn is a great time to enjoy it since peaches help to dispel cold from the body (yep, they are actually more warming than cooling!). Plus, this Peach Pie Filling is sweetened with maple syrup and a hint of cinnamon, bringing in even more of those those warming notes. 

It's perfect for pie, of course, but it's also delicious topped on coconut nice cream, made into a crumble or cobbler, or my favourite, added to oatmeal 🥰

Plus, it’s totally free of dairy, cornstarch, gluten and refined sugar, making it a great anti-inflammatory option 🙌

And you know I gotchu, you can find this recipe on the blog!
