The latest additions to Amy’s Frozen Pizzas include two new gluten-free varieties. Meatless Pepperoni and Roasted Vegetable join their Spinach with Rice Crust Pizza and single-serve Cheeze Pizza for a harmonious quartet of convenient gluten-free, vegan options.
The Vegan & Gluten-Free Varieties of Amy’s Frozen Pizzas
Amy covers the spectrum of cravings with this little collection. It includes meaty, cheeseless, cheezy, and a flavorful “greens” pizza. This post is specifically for the gluten-free, dairy-free varieties. If you’d like to see the wheat-based dairy-free and vegan options, we have another post with those Amy’s Frozen Pizzas.

Gluten-Free Roasted Vegetable Pizza – No Cheese (NEW)
Amy’s roasted vegetable pizza is a timeless classic. (I actually have a copycat recipe for it in the 2nd Edition of Go Dairy Free). And now they’ve come out with a gluten-free version!

Overall good - we enjoyed it, but there is room for improvement
We tried the Spinach Pizza. The cheese really did melt, but we wished there was a little more. The picture on the box shows a very cheesy pizza, but ours had just a sprinkle of dairy-free mozzarella. We also wanted more sauce, because it was delicious! Every time a bright red bit hit my tongue, my taste buds came alive. But my husband commented, “there’s tomato in this pizza?”
Though we felt it was sparse in some departments, this pizza was well equipped with spinach ricotta topping. And the garlicky, cheesy, spinach blend was fantastic. It was thickly spread, dominating both the surface area and flavor of this pizza. We all enjoyed it, but wanted some chunky vegetables to break up the texture for a more pizza-like experience.
The crust wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t a highlight. We baked up two pizzas, one using the crisp crust instructions and the other using the soft crust instructions. The crispy crust was very thin, and it made the pizza seem cheap. The soft crust required some rising time, but it was a good half inch thicker.
