Hi there, Ameera here!
Itβs finally here!Β I have been waiting eagerly to share with you our AH-MAZING Pizza Pasta Supreme dish for-like-eva!Β As most of our readers know, we work about 12 to 16 weeks out so this one has been done for a while, we just finally got it in the line-up! YAY!
I kept telling Mom, letβs move it up in the schedule!Β Itβs soooo good!Β We were planning to release this recipe about a month ago, but we try really hard to arrange our recipe schedule, so we donβt have too many pasta dishes or too many stews all released at the same time.Β Sometimes, we just canβt help it as we love our soups, stews, and pasta dishes.
Ding, Ding, Ding. . .
Poor Michael, his calendar somehow got linked to our Monkey and Me Kitchen Adventures electronic calendar, so whenever we start moving dishes around on our calendar for release dates (which is often), his phone starts dinging like crazy.
He is like βDang, quit moving all this food around on the calendar! All this beeping is killing me!βΒ He says it lovingly, but I am sure it is uberly annoying. Thankfully, we just recently figured out how to disconnect our MaMKA calendar from his calendar. Phew!
Saucy Perfection
You can totally use a WFPB compliant store-bought pizza sauce in this recipe, but our new Easy Healthy Pizza SauceΒ is sooooo gosh darn good!Β We absolutely love it, and it worked perfectly with this dish.
Little Clouds of Heaven
We are a gnocchi-loving family.Β Whatβs not to love about those lil pillows of wondrousness!Β We used gnocchi in this dish because it reminded us of eating a beautiful thick crust pizza.
The gnocchi are reminiscent of those gorgeously thick Sicilian style pizza crusts: tender and chewy.Β It worked perfectly in this dish, but you could totally use any pasta you wish.
Finding Whole Food Plant Based compliant gnocchi isnβt hard.Β Check out our Whole Food Plant Based Compliant Store-Bought ProductsΒ for gnocchi. We bought some gluten free gnocchi from amazon.
Iβll let Mom tell you more.

This has become a huge favorite! Used penne and am not vegan (yet) so I sprinkle some feta over it. I don’t like mushrooms so I replaced it with Jalapenos and olive. I am so in love with this! Going to try the gluten free and vegan version soon.
