My latest mango inspired recipe is this mango pan vegan pizza.
It’s summer. It’s hot. Who wants to turn on the oven and heat up the house even more? This vegan pizza is quick to make, and is cooked over the stove too. The thin, crispy base won’t give you that heavy feeling from over-indulging in a deep pan pizza base.
I also love the addition of mango on this pizza! I’m sure I’ve seen mango on pizzas at gourmet pizza restaurants (maybe with prawns or something…) but never tried it. But it adds a tasty tropical flavour. Like pineapple on pizzas. My kids loved the mango on their pizzas too, so these pizzas were a successful meal in my house!
