Ingredients

  • 1 Vegan pizza crust from Trader Joe’s
  • 1 cup BBQ sauce (choose a vegan brand)
  • 1 package vegan chicken strips (e.g., Gardein, Beyond Meat)
  • 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup vegan mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 1/2 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen, optional)
  • 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped (optional)
  • Olive oil for brushing the crust

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven according to the instructions on the vegan pizza crust package (typically around 425°F).
  2. Prepare Vegan Chicken: Cook the vegan chicken strips according to the package instructions. Once cooked, chop them into bite-sized pieces and toss with half of the BBQ sauce.
  3. Assemble Pizza:
    • Base Layer: Spread the remaining BBQ sauce evenly over the pizza crust.
    • Toppings: Distribute the BBQ-coated vegan chicken pieces evenly over the sauce. Sprinkle the thinly sliced red onions and corn kernels (if using) over the top.
    • Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded vegan mozzarella cheese evenly over the toppings.
  4. Bake: Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust is golden.
  5. Finish: Remove from the oven and sprinkle with chopped cilantro (if using).
  6. Serve: Slice and enjoy your vegan BBQ chicken pizza!
