Vegan pizza with cashew cheese

This is one of my go to recipes when I am really craving some nice pizza and cheese even (it mostly happens on a hangover day, oh yes vegans get hungover). This pizza is so nice and comforting without using dairy or any animal products. Also it’s really quick and easy to prepare.

INGREDIENT:
Dough and topping ingredients:
- Vegan pizza dough (most is vegan anyway, you can get that in most supermarkets)
- Tomato paste
- Oregano
- 1/2 red onions (or any onion)
- 1 large tomato
- A couple of brown mushrooms
- Grilled artichokes
- Olive oil
Vegan cheese ingredients:
- 2 handfuls of cashew nuts
- Juice of half a lemon
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 1/2tbsp nutritional yeast flakes
- Sea salt (or any salt but it tastes best with sea salt)
- Dash of pepper
METHOD:
Preheat oven to 180C.
For the vegan cheese put two handfuls of cashews (depending on your blender you might have to increase the quantity a bit for it to blend properly) into a small blender, add all other cheese ingredients and a bit of water - make sure you add just enough for it to become a smooth but thick paste. You might have to start with less water and add more water gradually. Blend until you have a smooth paste - you might have to add more salt (cashews are salt hungry) and more nutritional yeast for a cheesier taste. Set aside.
Take the vegan pizza dough, and spread tomato paste on it (cover it well), sprinkle a little bit of olive oil, some garlic/garlic powder and some oregano. Then add the vegan cheese to the topping. Slice tomatoes mushrooms and artichokes, cut onions into rings and add to the pizza.
Bake on a baking sheet or pizza tray for 8-10 minutes or until crisp. Serve with a nice green salad.
