VEGAN PEPPERONI TOPPING FOR PIZZA

Vegan Pepperoni Topping for Pizza image

From The Complete Guide to Vegan Food Substitutions, this has the flavor of pepperoni without the meat! Use to top a pizza, stuff a calzone, or wherever you use pepperoni. I may try making this with tofu too, crumbling it and adding spices, oil and liquid smoke(leaving out water).
