Taking the traditional ingredients found in many Mexican dishes and transforming them into a cross-cultural meal, this Mexican Quinoa Pizza is a decidedly different take on classic pizzas. The pizza consists of a quinoa crust that is made using just a handful of ingredients before being topped with various layers of vegan ingredients such as kidney beans, avocado, red lentil tomato chili and even a homemade cashew sour cream. Fresh herbs are used as a garnish to make this pizza a fresher take on the cheesy, meaty options that are found all around the world.
The Mexican Quinoa Pizza is a far healthier take on pizza and is free of gluten as well as animal ingredients thanks to the vegan formulation.
