Vegan Miniature Broccoli & Cashew Cream Pizzas

Small, but filled with humongous broccoli taste in every bite!
Little pizzas make life less guilty at meal time!
Incredibly yummy and cute, I had an idea for weeks to craft mini pizzas as to save myself from grabbing more than needed triangular slices.
Crisp exterior and soft, chewy center, layered with freshly homemade cashew cream, broccoli, and red onion pieces, miniature pizzas would be pleasing for four friends to enjoy as an appetizer or for the lonely woman to have alongside her staring cat companion.
With my leftovers, I plan on packing them up for a lovely Saturday picnic- weather permitting! :)
