An exploration into the syncretism of traditional soul food flavor, five-star chef artistry (sometimes), and healthier vegan ingredients.

Gourmet Veggie Pizza
I like to deviate from the norm every once in a while, and tonight I wanted Greek-style pizza with veggies. Roasted red peppers, of course, and garlic cloves. Avocado--I was unsure about that as a pizza topping until I tried it a few years ago, and really enjoyed it. Classic homemade crust and tomato sauce, with just a little sprinkle of Daiya. But I wanted a little extra pizzazz (pun intended) so I decided to try a quick pesto. I used pine nuts and parsley with hempseed oil. It definitely gave it a unique kick, while keeping the charm of old-style Greek pizza a la my Greek grandmother!
