Delicious Vegetarian Pizza Toppings

Cheese

The heart and soul of the pizza, cheese is one of the three core ingredients that constitute the beloved dish. While many vegetarians choose to eat cheese, it is definitely a no-go for vegans. Thankfully some incredibly talented culinary mad scientists have developed vegan cheese that is completely dairy-free; and frankly, we can’t tell the difference. We use Daiya vegan cheese that is 100% dairy free.

Mushrooms

Theis delectable fungus has been a staple in pizza making for hundreds of years, dating back to one of the original Italian creations, the pizza caprocciosa – topped with baked ham, mushrooms, artichoke and tomato. Mushies are a fleshy, delicious and vitamin-rich addition to any pizza with a heavier texture and hearty taste. There are also many different varieties, each with their own different flavours and characteristics.

Feta

Feta is a delicious, exotic addition to any pizza and has found its way onto many of the different vego options on our menu. With a salty, rather sour taste and a soft, crumbly texture, fetta nicely offsets the heavier ingredients on a pizza, offering a fresh burt of flavour. And when there are a few olives thrown in the mix, it is a truly magical experience.

Jalapeños

Sometimes a pizza needs a little kick, and amongst all of the chilli options, jalapeños are arguably the most delicious. Jalapeños are medium-sized chilli peppers, and despite their spicy complexion, are actually very fresh and fragrant. They are generally quite mild, and are appropriate for even the most sensitive chilli skeptics.

Olives

The great divider. Olives are one of those you either love it or you hate it kind of foods, but if you’re a fan, can make all the difference to a pizza. For vegetarians, they can provide a well-needed salty twang to any pizza, and when cooked at high temperature in an oven, they are extremely juicy and soft. Olives are a major Mediterranean speciality and have found their way onto a variety of our pizzas. Vegetarian pizza toppings cab be delicious!

Haloumi

A middle-eastern delight and perhaps the most mouth-watering vegetarian option available, haloumi has truly made its mark as a vego favourite in modern Australia cuisine. Its high melting point means it gets crispy rather than melts, and combined with its salty taste makes it a delicious vegetarian substitute for meat. Its rich flavour means its great in smaller quantities, and when scattered across a hot pizza, is truly a revelation.
