Pizza night just got a whole lot spicier! This bad boy combines two of life’s greatest pleasures – pizza and buffalo cauliflower. It’s like the universe heard our prayers and decided to bless us with this culinary masterpiece.

Start with your favorite vegan pizza crust (store-bought is totally fine, no judgment here). Spread it with a thin layer of vegan buffalo sauce, then top with roasted buffalo cauliflower florets, vegan mozzarella, and thinly sliced red onions. Bake until the crust is golden and the cheese is melty.
