20 Vegan Pizza Recipes that Carnivores will love! (2024)

FAQs

What do vegans eat for pizza? ›

Like any good pizza, the topping possibilities are endless. Try some fun vegan protein like chopped vegan meatballs, baked tofu, vegan pepperoni, or vegan bacon. Fresh veggies like red peppers, mushrooms, and red onion are great. Other fun ideas include olives, spinach, and vegan parmesan cheese.

Now if you're a vegetarian, you can still enjoy cheese on your pie. A classic cheese is always a crowd pleaser for those just eliminating meat from their diet. Vegans, however, do not consume dairy products of any kind, meaning no dairy cheese.

Reduced Saturated Fat and Cholesterol: Vegan pizza eliminates animal products, which are sources of saturated fats and dietary cholesterol. High intake of saturated fats and cholesterol has been linked to increased risk of heart disease, obesity, and other health issues.

Start with Our Original Dough

Our original hand-tossed dough is tasty, plant-based and contains no animal products. Nope, not even honey. Note: Our other crust options contain milk and/or egg products.

Now, vegan pizza isn't perfect — vegan cheese and vegan meat are typically very high in fat and salt, after all — but in many cases, it's a healthier alternative to traditional pizza. Thanks to a vegan pie's lack of meat and dairy, you don't have to worry about consuming cholesterol or carcinogens.

Vegan White Pizza With Artichoke Tofu Ricotta and Roasted Garlic, right, and Vegan Pizza With Miso-Caramelized Onions and Shiitake Bacon are both great – without cheese. Season dough with dried herbs and paprika for a brighter, better flavor. Artichoke Tofu Ricotta is great on pizza or as a spread or dip.

Here in the US, there are no vegan-by-default pizza options at Domino's. You can, however, build your own vegan pizza, from the crust to the toppings—just no dairy-free cheese. There is a sliver of hope, though. In 2020, Domino's CEO divulged that an internal team was testing out plant-based sausage crumbles.

Q: Is pizza dough vegan? A: Typically yes, most pizza dough is vegan since it's made from water, flour, yeast, and salt.

Do vegans eat pasta? Most packaged pasta—including spaghetti, penne, and more—is vegan. It's worth checking the label to be sure, as some pasta contains eggs, but most of the pasta you see on the supermarket shelves is 100% vegan!

This includes the obvious stuff – like meat – but also includes a variety of more subtle ingredients, like cheese, gelatin, and coloring agents made from animals. Seeing as one of the main ingredients to pizza is cheese, it can be hard to find a vegan pizza!

What is the most unhealthy thing in pizza? ›

​The worst offender in pizza could sometimes be the dough or crust. Refrigerated pizza crust, for instance, often contains hydrogenated oils as well as artificial additives.

There are plenty of pizza choices that can be considered healthy. Some options that can easily fit into a nutritious and balanced diet include a thin-crust pizza and a cauliflower-crust pizza. Topping choices on the more nutritious side are vegetables, chicken, shrimp and cheese.

Meat lovers don't have to lose out. Swap out fatty meats like pepperoni and pork sausage for thinly sliced (leaner) cuts of salami, turkey bacon and chicken sausage.

While Domino's does have vegan pizza, not all of its pizza ingredients are plant-based. Apart from the most obvious culprits, meat and dairy, some of the crusts and toppings contain animal products.

Our Beyond Pan Pizzas feature a new plant-based Italian Sausage topping that was developed exclusively for Pizza Hut, in partnership with Beyond Meat. It is seasoned with Italian herbs and spices so that you can still experience the delicious Italian Sausage taste you know and love, no sacrifice required.

DOES DOMINO'S HAVE A PLANT-BASED RANGE? We're constantly innovating our menu to provide great choice and we're proud to say we have a growing plant-based pizza range.

Yes, three out of the four main pizza crusts that Pizza Hut offers are vegan-friendly and don't contain any dairy or animal products. These include the Hand-Tossed Pizza Crust, the Original Pan Pizza Crust, and the Thin N' Crispy Crust (the only crust that isn't vegan is the Original Stuffed Crust).
