    Vegetarian pizza?

    Hi! I have been a vegatarian since I was 10 (14 years!). I found out about the use of animal rennet in cheese about 4 or 5 years ago and have been pretty obsessive about avoiding it since.
    I know most of the delivery pizzas that do not use animal rennet, but I was wondering if anyone knew anything about pizza chains (like California Pizza Kitchen, Sbarro's, Mellow Mushroom, etc)?
    Also, I am really curious if there are any frozen pizzas that use vegetarian rennet? I know about Amy's, but $7 for a pizza is a bit out of my price range except for special occasions...
    Any help is greatly appreciated!!

    I think you can get soy cheese from Mellow Mushroom, which would be rennet free.

    I would get a tomato pie if unsure!

    Most vegetarian cheese still has casein in it so if you are thinking vegan cheese....you would have to make your own or do without.

    I know you can buy cheeseless frozen pizza (as they use regular mozzarella) and when ordering, you could ask for no cheese.

    I hate taking the risk so I try to avoid ordering pizza. I have enjoyed making my own pizza from home (healthier too ).

    I am an advocate for the Pampered Chef, here is a great recipe you might like.

    Make your own out of bread dough, your favorite sauce and veggies on top w/o cheese. It's delish!

    Vegan Spaghetti & Meatballs

    An old classic never fails. It was tonight's dinner. I used Nate's meatless meatballs (Italian style).
