Hummus Pizza
This was our best cheeseless pizza ever! We always cheat and use Whole Foods pizza dough for the crust. This one was topped with leftover Vita-Mix Hummus, olive oil, roasted peppers, mushrooms, garlic and Penzey's Pizza Seasoning. So unbelievably good! I really need to learn to make a pizza dough that's as good as the Whole Foods dough, so if you have any suggestions for really great whole wheat crust recipes, definitely let me know. Their dough makes a perfect chewy crust and my so-so attempts just really haven't measured up.

That looks awesome. I find it really hard to eliminate cheese from pizza as I tend to think that pizza is best with cheese on it.
Adding hummus to pizza gives it a whole new dimension. What a great way to re-interpret traditional pizza. By the way, Kickpleat over at "Everybody Likes Sandwiches" blog recently made a pizza dough from scratch.
I completely forgot that she posted that recipe! I'll have to try it out soon.
Because I'm not a big fan of fake cheese (although I do want to try Teese), I've found that the best way to make vegan pizza is with a sauce other than tomato--something that doesn't get quite so dry and doesn't seem so much like crappy cheeseless pizza...That's why I really liked the hummus on this one. And, of course, loading on as many toppings as possible helps tremendously.
