Finding vegan pizza around Tucson isn’t necessarily hard, but it could be challenging if you don’t know what you’re looking for.
There are a handful of pizzas that stand out from the rest. Most pizza shops are happy to substitute dairy-based cheese; vegan cheese isn’t for everyone. Some avoid cheese altogether and allow the flavors of sauce, herbs, and veggies to stand out.
Take a look and add some new favorites to your local pizza adventures.
The (vegan as-is) BBQ Jack is 10 inches of sweet and spicy perfection. Spicy barbecue sauce, jackfruit, jalapeños, pineapple, red onion, vegan mozzarella, and topped with micro cilantro.

The staff at Penelope is happy to create customized vegan options, but here’s a pro tip: Order the Pammy with no mozzarella and add jalapeños. Tons of flavors! You won’t miss the cheese. Order their Olivers’ Greens salad with no prosciutto or mozzarella. Their lemon vinaigrette is vegan, and they can add any veggies you’d like.
