ATLANTA–(BUSINESS WIRE)–With the new year and customers’ renewed focus on health, Mellow Mushroom, the originator of hand-tossed, stone-baked classic Southern pizza, is introducing a “Build Your Own Vegan Pizza” option to the Build Your Own Pizza section of its menu. The launch comes in support of Veganuary, which encourages people to follow a vegan diet for the month of January.

A plant-based diet can improve your health and support environmental sustainability. Mellow Mushroom is supporting nonprofit Veganuary by providing many options for vegan guests. These include making it easy by offering delicious vegan pies, vegan ingredients, a dedicated online vegan menu category and, beginning in January 2023, a new dining room vegan menu.

With 19 ingredients on the new “build your own vegan pizza” section, diners can create a custom vegan pizza to fit their preferred tastes and dietary needs. They can select ingredients that include tempeh and Follow Your Heart® dairy free cheese.

“Mellow Mushroom is delighted to launch our “Build Your Own Vegan Pizza” option just in time for Veganuary,” says Anne Mejia, VP Brand Development, Mellow Mushroom. “At Mellow Mushroom, we take pride in the inclusive nature of our menu offerings, and our ability to serve delicious pies, salads, and munchies that accommodate dietary needs and preferences while maintaining great quality.”

Other vegan menu options include:

  • Vegan Veg Out and Vegan Cheese Pizzas
  • Vegan Greek and Enlightened Spinach Salads
  • Vegan Pretzels made with Mellow Appalachian spring water dough and served with a choice of Mellow Red Sauce or classic yellow mustard
  • Vegan Avocado Hoagie
  • Vegan Tempeh Hoagie

“We all have the power to make the world a little kinder, greener and healthier this new year. It’s great to see restaurants like Mellow Mushroom embracing this opportunity and providing planet-friendly vegan options that showcase how delicious, varied, and satisfying vegan food can be!” said Wendy Matthews, Veganuary US Director.

Mellow Continues to Support Restaurant Community

In November, Mellow Mushroom launched a newly designed menu at all 160+ restaurants that is a colorful combination of ultramodern and retro. The new menu art inspired the Mellow Wonderland holiday merchandise, available for sale at theyellowroom.com. Purchases of Mellow Wonderland merchandise benefit CORE (Children of Restaurant Employees), a non-profit that helps restaurant operations employees with children who face a health crisis or natural disaster. The menu and merchandise promotion runs through December 31, 2022.
