If you are new to TSV then you may not be aware of my love for Friday…Pizza Friday in particular. Just because us vegans don’t eat cheese, doesn’t mean we can’t partake in this glorious day.
You can check out all of my pizza recipes here. And today, we are putting together some light and fresh flatbreads complete with homemade vegan ricotta and zucchini ribbons.
If you haven’t made your own ricotta before, let me tell you…it is super easy. With just a few ingredients and 10 minutes, you can have it ready to go. You can get my ricotta recipe here.
Vegan ricotta is also becoming more and more accessible at the grocery store. If you have access to a store-bought brand, you can use that as well.
To make these flatbreads even easier, I used pre-made naan. Naan can be found at just about any grocery store – just be sure to check the label to make sure it is vegan.
TSV TIP: The naan at Trader Joe’s is 100% vegan.
Another important part of this recipe is getting your zucchini super thin. I suggest using a mandoline slicer – you can find the one I have here. If you don’t have one, you can show off your knife skills and slice your zucchini as thin as possible (without chopping off your fingers).
Once the flatbreads are heated through, top them off with fresh basil, sliced almonds, red pepper flakes and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. All of these flavors combined make for a light, but satisfying pizza dinner.
