Veggie Pizzas

I used to equate pizza with pepperoni, but in the early days of the business, we witnessed a huge growth in demand for veggie pizzas. At the Chico Farmers’ Market, we’d put out samples of pepperoni, cheese, and veggie-loaded Cali’flour pizzas, and the ones with the most veggies were always the first to go. People were looking for dishes to match their plant-forward lifestyles and make use of seasonal farmers’ market produce. The pizzas we came up with back then, from my famous stir-fry to the zoodle alfredo, were the inspiration for the recipes in this chapter.
