VEGAN ROASTED CAULIFLOWER BUFFALO PIZZA
his Vegan Roasted Cauliflower Buffalo Pizza is the perfect balance of spiciness and creaminess with a nice crunch from the cauliflower.
And I may or may not celebrate pizza Sunday, Tuesday or Thursday on occasion.
In order to round out the week, I thought we should celebrate Pizza Monday too.
Yes I know Mondays are all about starting fresh with lots of greens, but sometimes a pizza is just the ticket to kick off the week.
And this pizza has cauliflower – so its basically like eating a salad.

Total Time 1 hour 20 minutes
Servings 4
Ingredients
16 oz pre-made pizza dough
1/2 head cauliflower cut in bite sized pieces
4 tsp olive oil
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp chili powder
3/4 cup buffalo sauce separated
pepper to taste
1/4 red onion sliced
1/4 cup vegan ranch
2 green onions diced
2 tbsp cilantro diced
Instructions
One hour before you want to cook the pizza, place the dough on a flour-dusted countertop.
While dough is coming to room temperature, preheat oven to 425 degrees and line a baking sheet with foil.
In a large bowl combine cauliflower, olive oil, garlic powder, chili powder, pepper and 1/4 cup of buffalo sauce. Stir to combine. Spread evenly on baking sheet and cook for 20 minutes, flipping halfway. Remove from oven and increase oven heat to 475 degrees. Place cauliflower back in the bowl. Add remaining buffalo sauce and stir to combine.
Spray a 16" round baking sheet (or baking sheet of choice) with non-stick spray. Place dough on the sheet and stretch to desired shape. Top dough with buffalo/cauliflower mixture and spread evenly. Top with red onion and place in the oven for 12-17 minutes, or until crust is brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven and top with ranch, green onion and cilantro. Slice, serve and enjoy!
