Kim’s personal chef Gabe Galvez has a special knack for creating the most delicious comfort foods out of clean ingredients and making fully vegan dishes. When she shared his colorful, loaded pizza recipe with us, we couldn’t wait to try it (it’s Kim’s favorite, so you know it’s good). With a premade cauliflower crust and fresh corn on top for a sweet pop, it’s super simple and tastes like a mouthful of summer.
