Stronghearts volume 1: The Pizza Edition

We celebrated vegan pizza day a day early with two amazing pizzas from Stronghearts. Stronghearts is really weird because they only serve pizza on Fridays between 6PM and 2AM, and you have to call way ahead to order (I think we called at like 4PM to get our pizza at 7:45PM), but it’s totally worth it!

Pictured above are our boxes (I got such a kick out of seeing my name on them), a hot chicken wing pizza (hot sauce based pizza with vegan blue cheese and soy chicken strips marinated in hot sauce on top) and TLT pizza (pesto based pizza with onions, tomatoes, sauteed spinach and marinated tofu). 

The hot chicken wing pizza was amazingly spicy and we ate half the chicken strips before getting home they were so good, and the TLT’s pesto base was amazing. I did wish the tofu on the TLT was more like tofu ricotta, but I loved all the veggies (and munched all the little pieces of tofu off the pizza anyway)! 

These were exceptionally delicious and totally worth the trip to Syracuse if you can get up there. Yum.

Stronghearts is located at 719 E Genesee Street, Syracuse, NY.
