Great traditional pizza can be found in any city across the nation. While Chicago, New York, and Boston are Competitive as to who has the best. There is no doubt that…
Cheese is the heart and soul of the pizza, it is one of the three core ingredients that constitute the beloved
dish.
While many vegetarians choose to eat cheese, it is definitely a no-go for vegans. Thankfully some incredibly talented culinary mad scientists have developed vegan cheese that is completely dairy-free; and frankly, we can’t tell the difference. We use Daiya vegan cheese that is 100% dairy free.
Feta
Feta is a delicious, exotic addition to any pizza and has found its way onto many of the different vegan options on our menu. With a salty, rather sour taste and a soft, crumbly texture, fetta nicely offset the heavier ingredients on a pizza, offering a fresh burst of flavor. And when there are a few olives thrown in the mix, it is a truly magical experience.
Jalapeños
Sometimes a pizza needs a little kick, and amongst all of the chili options, jalapeños are arguably the most delicious. Jalapeños are medium-sized chili peppers, and despite their spicy complexion, are actually very fresh and fragrant. They are generally quite mild and are appropriate for even the most sensitive chili skeptics.
Olives
The great divider. Olives are one of those you either love it or you hate it kind of foods, but if you’re a fan, can make all the difference to a pizza. For vegetarians, they can provide a well-needed salty twang to any pizza, and when cooked at high temperature in an oven, they are extremely juicy and soft. Olives are a major Mediterranean specialty and have found their way onto a variety of our pizzas. Vegetarian pizza toppings can be delicious!
Halloumi
A middle-eastern delight and perhaps the most mouth-watering vegetarian option available, halloumi has truly made its mark as a vegan favorite in modern Australia cuisine. Its high melting point means it gets crispy rather than melts, and combined with its salty taste makes it a delicious vegetarian substitute for meat. Its rich flavor means its great in smaller quantities, and when scattered across a hot pizza.
Mushrooms
The ultimate veggie pizza topping might just be mushroom. They’re meaty, flavorful, and pair well with cheese and sauce. The key is to cook them before topping the pizza—adding a little garlic doesn’t hurt either.
