This post contains many firsts! It was my first time cooking from Vegan on the Cheap, which just came in the mail a few days ago and I made 2 recipes from, my first time using the shredding blade on my food processor (which was fun, and I only did because I had the food processor out already but would not use if I hadn’t), my first time putting carrots in marinara sauce, and of course my first time making a “meatball” pizza.
The pizza was inspired by this delicious looking one posted on the PPK forums. The original purpose of my pizza was to see how it would taste with Veganomicon beanballs, but then I saw the wheatballs in VOTC and was eager to try them. I also made the marinara sauce from VOTC instead of Vegan With a Vengeance‘s pizza sauce.
