At Zzeeks, we believe pizza is for everyone, and our plant-powered pies prove it. Our vegan pizza options are crafted with fresh, sustainable ingredients that deliver bold flavors without compromising on nutrition or ethics. Whether you’re a lifelong vegan, exploring plant-based eating, or simply craving a lighter meal, our vegan pizzas offer something for every palate.
According to a 2023 Gallup poll, 1% of U.S. adults identified as vegan, a figure consistent with 2012 and 2018 findings. Assuming stability, this suggests approximately 3.36 million vegans in 2025, based on a U.S. population of ~336 million in 2023.
As part of our commitment to healthy pizza, these pies showcase Zzeeks’ dedication to inclusivity, quality, and community. Let’s explore what makes our vegan pizzas a must-try, from their nutritional benefits to their perfect pairings with our vibrant salads.
The Growing Appeal of Plant-Based Eating
The rise of plant-based diets reflects a growing awareness of health, sustainability, and ethical concerns. Vegan eating reduces environmental impact, lowers saturated fat intake, and promotes wellness through nutrient-rich foods. However, finding delicious vegan options at restaurants can be a challenge—until now. Zzeeks’ vegan pizzas are designed to satisfy cravings while aligning with plant-based values, making them a favorite in Phoenix’s Ahwatukee, Chandler, and Ocotillo communities.
Crafting Our Vegan Pizzas
Our vegan pizzas start with a hand-tossed crust (or a gluten-free option for those with sensitivities) made with simple, high-quality ingredients. Instead of dairy cheese, we use house-made vegan cheese crafted from cashews or nutritional yeast, delivering a creamy, melty texture without animal products. Our sauces, from classic marinara to zesty cilantro-lime, are free of dairy and artificial additives, ensuring a clean, flavorful base.
Toppings are where our vegan pizzas shine. Choose from a variety of fresh vegetables like spinach, artichoke hearts, roasted red peppers, black olives, and cherry tomatoes, all sourced from local Arizona farms when possible. For added protein, we offer plant-based options like tofu, tempeh, or black beans, creating a hearty, satisfying pie. Our Southwest-inspired vegan pizza, with black beans, corn, and avocado, is a fan favorite for its vibrant flavors and colorful presentation.
Nutritional Benefits of Zzeeks’ Vegan Pizzas
Our vegan pizzas are as nutritious as they are delicious, offering a balance of fiber, vitamins, and plant-based protein. Here’s a look at the nutritional profile for a typical slice (values vary based on toppings and portion size):
- Calories: Approximately 150–250 kcal per slice, making it a lighter option for mindful eaters.
- Fiber: 5–8 grams, thanks to vegetables and beans, supporting digestive health and satiety.
- Protein: 8–12 grams, with plant-based proteins like tofu or tempeh providing essential amino acids.
- Low Saturated Fat: Vegan cheese and plant-based toppings keep saturated fat low, promoting heart health.
- Key Micronutrients: Tomatoes, spinach, and peppers deliver vitamins A, C, and E, plus antioxidants to combat inflammation.
- Dietary Considerations: Vegan, dairy-free, with gluten-free crust options available.
This nutritional profile makes our vegan pizzas a wholesome choice for those seeking plant-based meals that don’t sacrifice flavor. The high fiber content promotes gut health and helps regulate blood sugar, while the low saturated fat content supports cardiovascular wellness.
