Ingredients

  • 1 green bell pepper (any color will work, we like to use red)
  • 1 sweet onion
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (can sub with vegetable stock)
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 lb ground meatless crumbles
  • 1 ½ -2 cups marinara
  • 2 cups vegan shredded cheese, divided
  • 1 32oz bag tater tots
  • 4 oz vegan pepperoni

Additional Toppings, Optional

    Instructions

    • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

    For the "Meat" Mixture

    • Chop onions, garlic, and peppers very fine.
    • Add oil to a large skillet (*we are using a 12" cast iron skillet to go directly into the oven), and saute your onions and peppers until translucent (about 2-3 minutes). 
    • Add in the garlic for 1 more minute. 
    • Sprinkle the Italian seasoning and garlic powder across and stir to combine. 
    • Add in meatless crumbles and marinara sauce. Stir together.
    • Cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
    • *If using an oven safe skillet, sprinkle 1 cup of the vegan mozzarella cheese, then add your frozen tater tots to the top.
      *If you are not, transfer mixture to a 9x13 casserole dish and then add the cheese and tater tots to the top.
    • Top with remaining vegan shredded cheese, then add the vegan pepperoni on top.
    • Bake for 30-35 minutes or until tater tots have cooked through. Broil for a few seconds after if desired for a crispier tots, careful not to burn.
    • Remove carefully and top with green onions or any favorite pizza toppings like red pepper flakes or grated vegan parmesan.
    • *Feel free to get creative with your favorite pizza toppings throughout the cooking process.
