This homemade Vegan Taco Pizza is an easy healthy recipe. Made with spicy tofu and taco ingredients.
I don't remember the first time that I had a taco pizza. I just remember really loving it.
It's been a very long time since I've had a taco pizza, so I figured it was time to create a recipe for one.
This was the week of taco recipes. I made some spicy tofu tacos, this vegan taco pizza, and some other taco recipes that I am still working on.
I think this is my favorite way to eat taco ingredients. You get a contrast of textures from soft spicy tofu and vegan cheese to crunchy lettuce and pizza crust.
The spicy tofu is flavored with tomato paste, salsa, and taco seasonings. Looking at it, you'd never know it was tofu, which someone pointed out to me after I made it.
The pizza is topped with everything you'd find in a taco: salsa, taco flavored tofu, shredded vegan cheddar, chopped lettuce, tomatoes, and Kalamata olives.
You could also include guacamole or chopped avocado, and vegan sour cream. The sky's the limit.

Tips for Making a Vegan Taco Pizza
- I recommend baking the pizza crust first to get a crispy crust. Then add the vegan cheddar and spicy tofu and bake a little longer.
- Make the spicy tofu the day before to make things easier. Better yet, double the batch and make tacos or nachos.
- Add the chopped lettuce, tomatoes, and Kalamata olives after baking. That way you get the same mouthfeel as tacos with warm and cold ingredients.
- Whatever you like on your tacos, use here. Feel free to change things up. It's your taco pizza after all!

This looks delicious. You might want to fix the link to the gluten-free pizza mix. Your link is to the regular mix, not gluten-free.
