Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make this Top 8 Allergen Free?
Yes! You’ll want to start by using a gluten free flour for the pizzas. We have been told that spelt flour has worked successfully. But other gluten free flours should work as well.
As far as toppings, you’ll want to pick a vegan cheese that’s allergen friendly.
We haven’t seen a vegan pepperoni that is gluten free, but you could swap that out with toppings.
Can I prep these ahead?
Yes! The pizza discs, once cooked and cooled, will last for 3 days stored on the counter or 1 week stored in an air tight container in the fridge.
One other thing, if you want to make up the entire lunchables box, just make sure that you choose a lunch box that doesn’t leak so the sauce doesn’t make your pizza discs soggy. Another option, would be to put the sauce in a small container on the side.
Can I freeze the pizza dics?
Yes! Let cool completely and store in an air tight freezer bag or container for up to 3 months.
Should these vegan pizza lunchables be served hot or cold?
Lunchables are traditionally served cold. However, you could also serve them warm if desired. It would be 20-30 seconds in a microwave or a few minutes in a toaster oven.
Can I swap out the toppings used on the pizzas?
Absolutely. We kept it simple with just sauce, cheese, and pepperoni, but you can be as simple or more complex as you want.
If you want to keep this plant based, then you can use any normal vegetable toppings like red peppers, mushrooms, onions, and more.
You can also get creative and make taco pizzas with salsa or use pesto or Alfredo sauce to switch things up. The possibilities are literally endless.
What is a good lunchbox?
The one that we have is from Target and honestly not great for anything even semi-liquid like a pizza sauce. The seals are tight so it leaks. So for something like this we would recommend one of the following styles:
