This amazing easy vegan bell pepper pizza is one of my favourite easy go to vegan comfort food recipes. It tastes like a slice of heaven and it’s topped with everything cheesy, delicious and vegan your heart could desire. Whenever I crave takeout, this is the recipe I turn to. It’s a better than takeout pizza, if you ask me. Partly because it’s vegan and partly because it’s actually quicker to make this pizza than it is to get takeout. And it requires almost zero cooking skills for maximum tastiness. There are 3 real stars of this pizza. The first is the pizza dough, which obviously makes the foundation and works as the carrier for all the deliciousness it’s topped with. The second star in this pizza is also the least visible one, but it makes all the difference: the vegan garlic cream cheese. The garlic cream cheese adds a creamy, decadent richness to the pizza that compliments the third star, the peppers. Together these three elements creates an irresistible feast that is garlicky, devious and completely irresistible.
