Seriously, how good does this gluten free pizza Mexican style look? Loaded with all the yummy ingredients you’d find at a Cinco de Mayo party — beans, salsa, avocado, peppers — this gluten free pizza has become one of my kids’ absolute favorites.
They’ve always loved tacos, and they clamor for homemade gluten free pizza anytime—so it was a natural fit! Since we combined these two favorite dishes, they no longer have to pick which they’re craving most! Gluten Free Pizza Mexican Style for the win!
In our house, we often make tofu tacos using organic firm tofu and gluten free taco seasoning; we have made this pizza with and without the taco filler and liked it both ways, so feel free to use whatever you like.
We also use non-dairy cheese, so I can assure you that other dietary restrictions are easy to accommodate with this recipe (another benefit of making it at home!) and there’s no issue with cross-contamination in pizza ovens or questionable wheat starch ingredients.
And topping your pizza with salsa instead of traditional pizza sauce—anything from black bean to mango salsa—opens up a wide range of flavor combinations just from this one recipe.
Top with your favorite Mexican-inspired ingredients, and this is bound to become a family favorite for you, as well!

Ingredients
- 1 gfJules™ Homemade Pizza Dough Recipe* or 1 gfJules® Pizza Crust Mix (1/2 mix = 1 2/3 cup mix)
- 1 can black beans, rinsed
- 4 Roma tomatoes, diced (or 1 can roasted tomatoes, diced)
- 1 can Ro-tel® tomatoes with green chiles (or 1 small can diced green chilies plus 2 more Roma tomatoes)
- 6 oz. salsa of choice
- Cooked, seasoned taco meat or tofu (optional)
- Cheddar cheese or non-dairy alternative (Daiya®, Go Veggie®, So Delicious®, etc.)
- Black olives (optional)
- Fresh cilantro leaves or shredded lettuce (optional)
- 1 avocado, sliced
- Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat oven to 200°F.
Prepare the crust recipe according to THIS HOMEMADE GLUTEN FREE PIZZA CRUST RECIPE or gfJules® Gluten Free Pizza Crust Mix package directions.
Turn off oven and place pizza inside to rise for at least 15-30 minutes.
After rising, turn oven on to 375°F and bake crust for 15 minutes.
While crust is baking, mix beans, tomatoes, green chiles and salsa in a large bowl.
Top cooked crust with salsa mixture, but drain each spoonful with a slotted spoon before topping the crust. Spread taco meat or tofu, if using, then spread cheese on top.
Return to the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes (total bake time will depend on crust thickness), until the crust is nicely browned and the cheese is melted.
Remove from the oven and sprinkle cilantro or shredded lettuce and olives on top of the pizza. Arrange slices of fresh avocado and serve.

Jules, I have four packages of your gf pizza mix. Unfortunately, I am in Baltimore, and the directions are in Florida . I have searched through your recipes, and cannot find directions for the pizza mix. If you could send the rest of the ingredients, and method, my daughter in law and I would appreciate that . Thank you, Doris
P. S. I saw a resignation on I think your web site. You will still be selling your fantastic products, right? Hopefully that was not you.
Hi Doris, no problem at all! Simply go to the Pizza Mix product page and scroll down to the tabs which show the how-to video, ingredients, nutritional information and Instructions, including what to add (2 Tbs olive oil, 2 egg whites, 1/2 tsp. apple cider vinegar and 1 1/4 cup warm water — all room temp.). Here’s the link to the product page: https://gfjules.com/product/gfjules-gluten-free-pizza-crust-mix/
As for the resignation, you probably saw the information about me resigning from my old company in 2014 after my ex-partners did some dastardly deeds. That’s when I started gfJules and don’t worry, I’m not going anywhere! 🙂
