Just like my Mediterranean Hummus Veggie Flatbread, this vegan Tortilla Pizza recipe is so quick and easy. In 20 minutes or less, you can be enjoying a delicious slice (or 4!). Easy to customize, too!
Much like My Favorite Avocado Toast, this Tortilla Pizza is more of a method than a recipe.
You can certainly load it up with your favorite pizza toppings – vegan cheese, marinara sauce, bell peppers, spinach, vegan sausage, artichokes, broccoli, etc.
MY favorite way top off these super easy vegan pizzas is with my delicious, lemony Pumpkin Seed Pesto followed by thinly sliced mushrooms, slivers of red onion, halved cherry tomatoes, and a chiffonade of basil. It’s a flavor explosion all on a crunchy pizza crust – perfection!
You might remember a similar pairing with my Game Day Vegan Pizza Bites (one of my very favorite party appetizers!). <- Those pizza bites, though, take a little extra time because you have to cut the crust into little rounds and then press them into a mini muffin tin and bake. For weeknight meal purposes, I don’t have time for that! That’s where these Tortilla Pizzas come in.
I might live in the Chicagoland area, where deep dish pizza reigns supreme, but I’m a thin and crispy pizza lover through and through.
When I was little, my Dad was the master pizza maker in our house. Truth be told, it was a mix from a box, but he knew just how to stretch it out to make it ultra thin, almost see-through, without breaking it.
I have fond memories of that pizza crust! But, even easier than a boxed mix, is a package of tortillas! It doesn’t get much thinner than that and they bake up super crispy in under 10 minutes. It’s the perfect base for my Vegan Pesto Pizza!

I love making pizza at home with the family- so fun and everyone can choose their own toppings! I’m a thin crust girl like you- even when I lived in Chicago, I never really got on board with the whole deep dish thing, lol!
Jenn S.
Oh, I didn’t know you lived in Chicago. How funny – glad to meet another thin & crispy “Chicagoan”!

I have just had to cut dairy out of my diet, so I am always looking for new vegan recipes to try and this looks delicious. I love pesto.
Jenn S.
Hi, Dannii! I hope you love it. Its my favorite pesto! I have a Kale Walnut Pesto on the blog, too, though if you’re interested in a little variety. 🙂

I love using pesto instead of the traditional pizza sauce! So healthy!

Me too! So much more flavorful! Thanks, Lisa!
amanda -runtothefinish
llllove this !! I feel like when you boost up the flavors then the no cheese isn’t an issue and makes all of us dairy free folks feel like we aren’t missing out!
Jenn S.
You definitely won’t miss the cheese in this flavorful combo! Thanks, Amanda!
