Frequently Asked Questions

No—most contain cheese. To veganize, replace mozzarella with cashew-based mozzarella, ricotta with silken tofu blended with lemon, and pesto with oil-only versions.
For dense vegetables (eggplant, bell peppers, zucchini), yes—roasting removes excess moisture and concentrates flavor. For delicate leaves and herbs, add after baking.
