One option is to not even use cheese on your pizza. Another option is to use tofu instead of cheese.
Vegetarians can use a vegetarian friendly cheese.
One example of a vegetarian cheese is a mozzarella that use microbial rennet. BelGioioso Mozzarella Cheese and Frigo Mozzarella are two examples of vegetarian friendly cheeses. However, please read the labels to assure that your cheese is friendly to your diet.
Here is how to make your own vegan mozzarella using tofu.
Here are the needed ingredietns for making your own "tofu mozzarella".
For every 1.4-.5 ounce of firm tofu, use 1 cup of cashew (or similar) milk+ 1 tablespoon + 2 teaspoons of tapioca starch+ seasonings if desired (pinch of salt, garlic etc).
Here are the instructions for making your own tofu cheese.
Blend your ingredients in a blender until smooth (about 45 seconds) then transfer it to a saucepan that have lightly prepped for nonstick. Bring the mixture to a boil on medium heat, stirring constantly. Once it boils you can remove the 'cheese' from the heat and allow it to cool.
Here are some tips Keto Low Carb Vegetarian Pizza
I mentioned earlier that this recipe works great with my Cauliflower Pizza Crust Recipe.
I also have a low carb pizza crust recipe as well as an Easy Low Carb Pizza Crust Recipe.
Here are some more great pizza tips for you.
- If you are using tofu instead of a 'tofu' cheese or cheese alternative product, use the tofu sparingly as it really does not taste a lot like pizza cheese and this can throw some folks off as a result.
- Use fresh vegetables that work well together on your pizza such as spinach and garlic rather than adding seasonings and ingredients that have a lot of salt in them.
- While you could make this pizza without any sauce, there are quite a few vegan pizza sauces that you can find online.
Nutritional Yeast also works well with this recipe.
I like that has a taste of its own that reminds me of Parmesan cheese. Nutritional Yeast is actually a 'deactivated yeast' that boasts having a lot of nutritional value. Simply sprinkle it on top of the pizza like you would Parmesan cheese.

What you will need to make this Keto Low Carb Vegetarian Pizza
- Pizza Crust- 1. Here are three crusts that you can choose from. Cauliflower Pizza Crust (Gf, LC,K) , low carb pizza crust recipe (vegan,veg,lc,keto) as well as an Easy Low Carb Pizza Crust Recipe (vegan,veg,lc,k).
- Vegan Pizza Sauce or olive oil- as needed.

How to make Keto Low Carb Vegetarian Pizza
- Prepare your crust as indicated in the instructions. Some crusts need to be prebaked while others can be baked as part of the pizza. However, I sometime will prebake my crust slightly as the ingredients on top can affect the ability of the crust to bake in the same time span as the rest of the pizza. Another option is to preheat a pizza pan. To be honest, I usually just use Parchment Paper for my pizzas these days. Parchment Paper makes it easier to transport the pizza and help crispin the crust.
- Preheat your oven to 425 and prepare your pizzas with sauce or drizzled olive oil and then toppings.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the pizza begins to brown.
