The method for preparing an Amy's Frozen Soy Pizza

Message Bookmarked

Consider heating the oven to a lower temperature than the one recommended, if your oven is at all given to sudden unexpected leaps in temperature.

Put pizza in and cook for about seven minutes. Temporarily remove pizza and drizzle with olive oil (optional), then put moist toppings on. Recommended toppings: fresh tomatoes in the summer; boiled spinach in the winter. (Additional toppings: mushrooms and pickled jalapenos.) Add pizza and cook for about seven or eight minutes more. (Time will depend on what temperature you decide to cook the pizza at. Cooking longer at a temperature just under the one recommended on the box seems to work fairly well.)

The important thing is to put on a topping that seals in the moisture. If the soy cheese dries out, it tastes bad.

why the fuck do they even make soy cheese pizza if they put casein in it?

OH MY GOD! Someone else understands what I've been doing nearly every weekend! I get a bag of frozen mushrooms - only shittake until recently until I found a bag of a variety of mushrooms. Anyway...so mushrooms and olives. Yeah that's the way I like it. Lots of mushrooms and some olives. I was so unhappy for awhile thinking "why do they only make a soy cheese pizza with no toppings besides cheese?" and then I got smart.
I also like artichoke hearts, but so far that hasn't been successful because it's hard to fit that on with all the mushrooms and olives.

Cheers to you and Amy's pizza, Rockist Scientist.

how long have you been vegan, chaki?

― Special Agent Gene Krupa (orion), Saturday, 31 December 2005 07:07 (twenty years ago)

Yeah, I know, chaki. I only eat it because cheese exacerbates my sinus problems, and I am trying to lose weight (I was a lot thinner when I was a vegan).

vegans are neurotics

you couldn't pay me to eat anything amy's. amy needs to learn that all natural isn't a synonym for flavorless. best cheap/fast: onion nan + sauce + veggies of your choice + oven (i don't have an opinion on soy cheese though.)

scott my wife would like to politely ask what drugs you are on, because we think amy's is teh awesome delicious

What of Amy's have you eaten scott?

― Rockist_Scientist (RSLaRue), Sunday, 1 January 2006 19:20 (twenty years ago)

if you are a vegan you will begin to find many things delicious. out of desperation. hahaha, sorry, just kidding.

oh, you know, enchiladas, pot pies, mac & cheese. no thank you, no thank you, no thank you.

but, you know, i am a steady consumer of tina's burritos, so there is no accounting for my taste. (although onion nan + sauce + veggies + oven is heaven on earth. you can take that to the bank.)

im not vegan! my girl is. i love amys tofu pockets.

for once on ile i am not alone!!:

"Christ that Amy's stuff is awful."

I gotta agree -- it may be healthy but it's ALWAYS tasted terrible.

xpost Amy's is quite the yuck. I don't understand how they take what are supposedly high quality, organic ingredients and manage to make them taste so cardboard-like.

I don't usually like Amy's food, but I have to say the pizza is the one exception! Is it wrong to eat the whole pie yourself?

I don't like a lot of Amy's products, but that no-cheese pizza (?) with the roasted vegetables is pretty good, and the soy pizza is okay if properly jazzed up (see this thread). The lentil soup is pretty good too (not the vegetable lentil, but just plain lentil). I know lentil soup is incredibly easy to make, but what if I want some lentil soup right now? I think some of her salsas are okay.

― Rockist_Scientist (RSLaRue), Sunday, 1 January 2006 20:47 (twenty years ago)

i haven't tried everything! i just can't remember ever having anything good. maybe one of the soups.

one month passes...

Well I actually managed to get some of the artichoke hearts on tonight, with the olives and frozen shitake mushrooms. I remove about half of the soy cheez when I start because a) it annoyingly tends to stick to your teeth and b) I'm completely paranoid about reducing the sodium in my diet as much as I can.

Still, I'm pleased with the pizza as it turned out.

I used to like the Amy's pesto pizza more...haven't had that in awhile. The one without cheese is good except it's far too sweet. Yuck.

Since my goal is to reduce the saturated fat and sodium to the maximum, I guess I'm stuck loading soy cheez pizzas with other toppings.
