Some people would say, pizza without cheese isn’t pizza! However, when we go back in history, traditional pizza did not have any cheese. In fact, the innovation which gave us the particular flat bread we call “pizza” was the use of tomato as a topping.
Century that the poor people of the area around Naples started preparing the dish. They would add tomato to their yeast-based flat bread. And the pizza was born.
The Marinara is the oldest pizza that has been served in pizzerias and also does not have any cheese. It has a topping of tomato, oregano, garlic, extra virgin olive oil and usually basil. It was named “Marinara” not, as many believe, because it has seafood on it (it doesn’t) but because it was the food the fishermen ate when they returned home from fishing trips in the Bay of Naples.
Dairy Free Cheese Pizza (vegan)
I made a no-cheese pizza yesterday and it was really good. Everything held together nicely and I didn’t miss the cheese for a bit. (I can’t really stand the smell of cheese, especially melted cheese, now anyway.)
During my London days, sometimes I used to have vegan mozzarella cheese on my pizza, but no vegan cheese is available over here in Mauritius. But then even if they were, I would cut down on them.
Vegan cheeses are high in fat. They might not contain any cholesterol but they are still highly processed blocks of vegetable oil so they are not any better for cardiovascular health. Besides, not using cheese of any sort saves a few pennies (or cents) for today and also much more in future on a doctor’s bill!

Add the water and knead until a dough is formed. (Be careful while adding the water and check the consistency of the dough before adding more. It will be difficult to handle a watery dough.)
Cover and allow to cook on medium heat until half cooked, turning occasionally. Be careful not to burn them, they can scorch quite easily!

In the meantime, cut the mushrooms and pineapples into small pieces (how small or big depends on how you prefer them to be!).
Now, I don’t know about you but I think pizzas are best eaten with the fingers! I eat pizzas with my fingers even when I go to restaurants, otherwise they just don’t taste the same!

Vegan White Sauce Pizza With Spinach (no Cheese)
I’m all about pizza. I mean, is there any food that’s actually better than pizza? I don’t think so. During a huge pizza kick this past autumn, I was trying to figure out the perfect vegan pizza. The different plant-based cheeses weren’t giving me the flavor I wanted, and I ended up falling in love with this flavor-packed cheeseless pizza.
This pizza has tons of flavor from the red chili flakes, garlic, and minced onion. You can control how spicy it is with the amount of chili flakes you use. If you’re like me, and like food with a seriously spicy kick, use up to an 1/2 teaspoon. If you want it to be flavorful, but not spicy, use only 1/4 teaspoon.
The cherry (or should I say cherry tomato?) on top, are the tomatoes. Be sure to bake them cut side up so that the tomato juice doesn’t make the dough soggy during baking. During the baking process they become sweet, flavorful, and melt in your mouth amazing.
Believe It Or Not, You Can Make Great Pizza Without Cheese. Here's How
First, let’s answer the question, “What is vegan pizza?” Vegan pizza is a pizza that doesn’t include any animal ingredients (this includes the dough, the sauce, and the toppings). Pizza dough is commonly vegan, so the toppings are what you have to pay the most attention to.
Since this is a no cheese pizza, there aren’t any other significant steps you have to take to make the pizza vegan. Both dough recipes I recommend (regular and gluten free) are naturally vegan, and all of the toppings for this recipe are also vegan.
If you really want to make an epic plant-based pizza, you could add sautéed vegetables to it. I’d recommend adding sautéed onion strips, bell pepper strips, and sliced mushrooms.

It’s important to sauté the vegetables until they’re about half cooked before baking. Otherwise the finished dish will have vegetables that aren’t quite cooked through. The vegetables have so much more sweetness and depth of flavor when they’re fully cooked.
If you eat gluten free, use my Gluten Free Pizza Crust recipe! It’s got tons of five star reviews and tastes just as good as regular pizza dough (if not better).
We love this recipe because it’s so simple and we need so few things to make it. The only things you’ll need are a good knife, a cutting board, a pizza cutter, and a nice heavy-bottomed skillet or a good baking sheet.

If you’re not using store bought dough, a stand mixer makes homemade dough a breeze to make. This stand mixer is an affordable workhorse in the kitchen – I love mine!
I made this pizza using ½ teaspoon red chili flakes, and it had a spicy kick. I prefer it that way, but if you’re looking for more of the spice flavor rather than the spicy heat, only use ¼ teaspoon red chili flakes (or even just a pinch if you’re very sensitive to spice).

STEP 1: Make the white pizza sauce. Add the cashew butter, vegetable broth and spices to a high container if heating it up in the microwave (the height prevents spillage). Alternatively, add everything to a small saucepan. Give it a good stir.
STEP 2: Heat the mixture until it thickens. Microwave on medium-high for 2 minutes. Then, whisk until smooth. If it's still not thick enough, microwave for another 30 seconds to 1 minute.
If you don't have cashew butter, soak ¾ cup raw cashews in warm water for 2 hours. Drain them. Blend the soaked cashews with ¼ cup of vegetable broth, garlic powder and nutmeg in a high-speed blender until perfectly smooth. Add more water as needed.

Elo's tip: use frozen spinach. If you don't want to bother sauteeing spinach, you can use frozen spinach. Let it defrost in a fine-mesh sieve over the sink. Once defrosted, press out any excess moisture with your hands before using it as a topping.
STEP 3: Roll out the pizza dough on a baking sheet. Fold the edges over to form the crust and prick the bottom with a fork. Don't forget to preheat the oven according to package directions.
STEP 4: Spread a generous layer of white sauce on the pizza base using a spoon. Be generous here, you don't want the pizza to be dry after baking.

STEP 5: Add the toppings. Add the sauteed (or defrosted) spinach and sliced red onion onto the pizza. Top with more cashew cream if desired. You can also brush the edges with a little olive oil to make them golden-brown and extra crispy.
STEP 6: Bake the pizza according to the package directions of your pizza dough. I baked it for 25 minutes at 400°F. Feel free to bake it in a cast-iron skillet or on a pizza stone if you have one.
Elo's tip: To really elevate your pizza and enhance its overall taste, we highly recommend adding fresh herbs, lemon zest and extra spices once you take it out of the oven. Find my favorite topping ideas below.
