We've already demonstrated that you can create vegan pizzas that are just as indulgent as the 'real thing', but this last creation made me wish there was someone slapping my hand to keep from going back for 2nds, or 3rds, in this case. Not only have I never tried substituting the texture of BBQ cauliflower for chicken, but didn't believe the decadent flavor I'd be in store for when pairing with tofu bleu cheese! Special thanks to Vegan Mint follower Nancy for providing recipe (from Keepin' It Kind) she tried as part of her company's Wellness Warrior challenge.
