Finally found Tofurky pizzas at my local Whole Foods, I’ve been wanting to try them ever since I’ve heard about them. I picked up all three flavors seeing as they’re currently on sale for $6.49, regular retail price is $7.99 for the 10-inch pizza pie.
First up is the Pepperoni Pizza pictured above. The crust is crispy if eaten right away, less so if I pretend to be a photographer and shoot pictures of everything. Normally, I don’t like whole wheat crust but this one is thin and tasty. Plenty of pepperoni chunks and not overly cheesy.
Next is the Italian Sausage and Fire-Roasted Veggie – I like how it’s not smothered with toppings. Some cheese but again it’s not an overwhelming amount, I thought the mix of sausage to veggies was nicely balanced.
Fortunately, there’s more zucchini than bell peppers and the bell peppers (which I do not like) are small pieces so it’s not overpowering. It reminds me of the meaty-type-of-sausage pizzas but a whole lot less greasy.
The Vegan Cheese is melty just like a regular cheese pizza, definitely a lot more cheese than on the other two flavors. The taste is close to cheese but if you ever had Daiya, you know it has a distinct taste to it.
Out of the three flavors, I like the veggie one the best. Of course, it doesn’t compare to a pizzeria or homemade but it’s still good for frozen pizza. If you’re short on time or lazy like me, how else could you be eating a vegan pizza in 12 minutes?

That pizza doesn’t look bad for frozen pizza. The veggie one is most appealing to me, and I can see how it might be useful to have one tucked away in the freezer for “emergencies.”

They have been a lot more expensive at my health stores over here. I want a coupon ASAP!
Morgan says
I have really been wanting to try those! THanks for the product review!
Hannah says
Ugh, I STILL haven’t been able to find these! If I ever do, I’ll definitely go for the veggie one first though- Thanks for the review!
Nanci says

I got the veggie one at my local whole foods a few weeks ago. Of course, I burned it. So I am still iffy on it. The parts that werent burnt were really good but overly powered by garlic. Im not sure Id get the flavor again. Maybe the cheese one.
But I for sure like the ones from vegan essentials online much better. They are like the perfect frozen pizza. Too bad they arent sold in stores!

Thanks everyone for you comments. :-)
Sarah – All 3 flavors have garlic – it’s in the sauce. So you might not like the cheese one either.
I haven’t seen those other online pizzas before, I’ll have to check them out sometime. Thanks!
Katie says
OH MY GOD. I need to try these, I want…I need. I had no idea they existed!
Looks so good, I hope they have them near me!

These look great and really handy for the freezer. However,I live in Poland and cannot get such things. I can only dream of vegan luxuries which save time. Still a great idea though
