VEGAN LITTLE SICILIAN PIZZA PI

Posted on July 1, 2023 by jeffreylatty

HAPPY JULY

Living most of my life being a Pizza addict, and a later in life type one diabetes diagnosis, has me eating pizza differently these days while keeping my blood sugars manageable and a craving under control.

Restaurant Pizza puts my blood sugar through the roof with or without insulin. Problem solving is a skill that can most times make life easier:)

Make Your Own.

I decided to try Aldi Vegan shredded ‘cheese’ with this Pizza creation. It tastes good, just still doesn’t melt the best. I will experiment more to see how it cooks…

Lower Carb Pizza Cheat

Posted on November 4, 2022 by jeffreylatty

Since being a young child I remember how special and comforting Pizza has been and my addiction to this wonderful food. The older I become, the less Pizza I can consume. Chicago style deep dish pizza is one of my favorite styles of Pizza to eat. That style has always been a occasional enjoyment because of its higher price. Regular deep dish or pan Pizza has been, in my eyes, the most economical for amount of Pizza density.

Since, checking my blood sugar 40-50 times a day with my Freestyle Libre 2 sensor, I’ve noticed how much Pizza and its large amounts of delicious Carbs bring havoc to my glucose levels. It’s unfortunate, but my Pizza addiction evolves, significantly, this year.

Store bought (frozen to be cooked) pizza is no longer good for me unless I want to inject extra insulin, being type ONE Diabetic. My goal is not to inject insulin, however, my body isn’t that simple.

Here’s my latest Pizza cheat. These low carb Tortillas aren’t very low carb, but the Fiber excuses the carbs – for the most part. The Egg White “wraps” along with the Mozzarella Cheese aren’t Vegan, but I do not see Veganism offering the delicious food in a low carb state as much as the Vegetarian food.

The Aldi low carb tortillas were 19 g carbs, 4 g protein and 15 g FIBER… Still jumping my blood sugar levels, just not as much as any other regular Pizza.

Taking time to ponder, to me, usually solves problems while spontaneity is more fun and also solves problems.

My decision is based off of how this one feels.

I try to think differently with Ⓥegan inspirational recipe ideas in hopes to boost creativity around the globe.

Cooking is easy and, really, a trial and error process of learning throughout life. Recipes are guidelines and are open minded for Your adjustments. The restaurant world is obviously a different story…

Finding adventure impacts the mind so wonderfully. In nature, in hobbies, in well-being.

Hopes of this reality or maybe falsity, as it inspires myself, is wished upon all you good:) people.

Ⓥeggie Roll

Posted on June 16, 2021 by jeffreylatty

A Ⓥegan Ⓥeggie Pizza Roll was prepared with three options of Ⓥegan dipping sauces. Normally, consistency of Vegan products take place, but not this time.

Daiya Sauces were utilized, while Field Roast Chao ‘cheese’ was stuffed inside the hefty Veggie Roll.

Along with the delicious ‘cheese’; Garlic, Capers, Tomato, Mushroom and Spinach filled the pizza dough. Baked lightly directly on the pan and rotating once, this delicious comfort food was destroyed with a variety of Ⓥegan flavors.

Maybe I am crazy, maybe it’s the quarantine. For the record.

I’m an essential worker, being a doors and windows expert. I am not scared of this corona. I am living my life 97% as I did prior to the corona. I miss sports!!!

As long as I can buy groceries and good Booze, I’m good.

Daiya Stuffed MacN Daiya Pi

Posted on August 23, 2019August 23, 2019 by jeffreylatty

Mac N Daiya was prepared as normal for a second. Imagination was evident and severely utilized. Fire roasted tomatoes, Chives and Cucumber were added to the slightly undercooked Mac. Crushed Red Peppers and Soy ‘chorizo’ was mixed in on a low//medium heat before adding the mouth watering Daiya ‘cheese’. Lightly salted and peppered, excitement was immense.

A single ingredient can light a spark in the mind that infuses multiple sparks to reuse ideas with a new concept and, BOOM, let’s make food today like this………….

Daiya ‘string cheese’ was found! I’ve been in love with Daiya for many of years now, bringing dairy-free deliciousness to my beloved comfort food. And excuse to make a pizza pi….. any excuse…. Vegan Pizza does not count as a relapse, in my book:)

Forever a Pizza Addict, a delicious pizza was made with a Daiya stuffed crust. I added the MacN Daiya with a bit more Daiya, some Smart ‘bacon’ and (:OMG:) Vegan ‘parm’ and Earth Balance ‘butter’ CRUST.

CHEERS.

Cheican Ⓥlorentizza

Nutcheese ‘alfredo’ was heated. Miyoko’s ‘mozz’ was added with sundried-tomato basil seasoning and Cayenne.

Cheican (faux chicken) was pan-fried and sliced. Flatbread pizza dough was sauced. Chopped Smart Bacon was added with sliced Spinach to cover. Tomato slices, Follow Your Heart slices, Mushroom, Cheican slices and lightly braised Broccoli completed this Pi.

In the desert valley soil, lives a fungus. This fungus spreads spores that people might breathe in. This is Valley Fever. I might have this or strep throat. We will see. The desert is a different beast, from what I am used to.

RIDE ON. COOK ON. PIC ON. LIVE ON. CHEERS.

Happy Monday to all and, to all, a happy Tuesday! Pizza addiction is real. Although, I’ve made a personal theme that Ⓥegan Pizza doesn’t count as relapse in a never-ending struggle. Ⓥizzawich was orchestrated, recently, with leftovers.

Make that dollar count! Feed yourself, Feed your friends, Feed your family, Feed hungry people! Please, do not throw food away or let spoil. Please read my prior post if you’d like a glimpse of the recipe. This blog is meant only for Inspiration. Cook your own! 🙂
