Notes

You can make this recipe ahead of time and freeze it for later. Just add a few extra minutes to the baking time when frozen. For a veggie-packed version, try adding mushrooms, sweet potatoes, or spinach. If you prefer a crispier crust, brush the top with a bit of dairy-free milk before baking.
