Ingredients




1 pizza crust
1 vegan Italian sausage
1 1/2 cups mashed potatoes
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
1 cup kale
2 tablespoons olive oil

1/4 cup shredded chedder soy cheese (I used Follow Your Heart Vegan Gourmet)

Preparation

1 Pre-heat your oven to 400 degrees. 2 Roll out your pizza dough on to a baking pan and put it in the oven for 8-10 minutes or until it’s lightly golden brown. 3 Meanwhile saute the kale and garlic in 1 TBSP of olive oil for about 5 minutes or until tender. 4 Add kale and garlic mixture to mashed potatos along with salt and pepper. 5 Thinly slice the sausage, then saute in 1 TBSP olive oil until they begin to brown. 6 Remove the pizza crust from the oven and layer on the mashed potatos with kale, sauerkraut, sausage, and soy cheese. 7 Put back into the oven for 5-7 minutes until everything gets warmed through, then broil for 1-2 minutes until the soy cheese melts. 8 Slice and enjoy!

About


I was flipping through my mom’s Taste of Home magazine the other day and a recipe caught my eye. It was a German pizza with mashed potatoes, sauerkraut, sausage and cheese. The recipe was submited by Angela Spengler.
I decided to veganize it and the results were suprisingly good.
