Avocado pizza with Avocado Sauce?! Yes! Yes! And more Yes! Can you tell I’m screaming with joy?

I love, love avocados and find every way I can to incorporate more of them into my dishes. Have you tried the avocado eggrolls  with the most amazing dipping sauce at Cheesecake Factory? Avocado, sun-dried tomatoes, and cilantro stuffed in a crispy won ton wrapper,  served with tamarind-cashew dipping sauce. They are to die for! That’s where the inspiration for my pizza came from as I wanted to incorporate similar flavors of the eggrolls but also use a lighter approach with this dish.

Skinny and by skinny I mean puff pasty thin crust, baked in one of my pizza trays with pizza pesto, which is a burst of gazillion flavors such as garlic, cashews, cilantro, cumin, turmeric just to name a few. Sweet, zesty, savory, and a little gooey. You name it. Topped with avocado, red tomatoes, and red onion.

Oh and don’t get me started on the Avocado Sauce! Blend of garlic, cilantro and avocado drizzled over the pizza. It also makes a great dipping sauce for about anything!

Description

Avocado pizza with fresh tomatoes, avocado chunks, and delicious sauce!

Ingredients

Units Scale

Pizza Toppings

  • 1 sheet of puff pastry (I used Pepperidge Farm Puff Pastry Sheets from 17.3 oz/1.1 lbs. pkg. which has two sheets but I only used one), thawed out overnight in refrigerator
  • 1 1/2 firm-ripe avocados, cubed 1/2 inch
  • 2 med. tomatoes, seeded, cored and diced 1/2 inch
  • 1/2 med. red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 1/3 cups shredded Italian Five Cheese blend

Pizza Pesto

  • 3 tsp. white vinegar
  • 1 tsp. balsamic vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp. lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp. honey
  • 1/8 tsp. turmeric
  • 1/4 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 cup chopped cashews
  • 2/3 cup fresh cilantro, roughly chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 2 green onions, roughly chopped
  • 1/2 Tbsp. sugar
  • 1 tsp. black pepper
  • 1 tsp. ground cumin
  • 1/4 cup olive oil

Avocado Sauce

  • 1/2 cup mayo
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 2 Tbsp. milk
  • 1 green onion, roughly chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1/2 cup cilantro, roughly chopped
  • 1 avocado
  • squeeze of fresh lemon juice
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

Pizza Pesto

  1. Combine all ingredients in a food processor until throughly mixed.

Avocado Sauce

  1. Combine all ingredients in a food processor until throughly mixed. You may need to stop the food processor and scrape the sides to blend all ingredients well.

Assembling Pizza

  1. Preheat the oven to 400F.
  2. Roll out puff pastry on a floured surface 1/4″ thick (it does not have to be perfectly round). Pierce the puff pasty with a fork to prevent bubbling and transfer to a parchment lined baking sheet or pizza stone.
  3. Spread the pizza pesto evenly over the puff pasty and sprinkle with cheese. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes or until golden crisp around the edges.
  4. Remove the puff pasty from the oven and place the prepared tomatoes, red onions, and avocado on top.
  5. Drizzle with Avocado Sauce as much or as little as you like and enjoy!

Notes

The ingredients listed are for one pizza, except for Pizza Pesto and Avocado Sauce, which yields enough for a second pizza. Double up the pizza topping ingredients to make a second pizza and use the second sheet of puff pasty.

    Absolutely favorite in our family! We have 4 kids and
    some are picky eaters 😉 however all of them love this pizza!
    I like how it has lots off fresh veggies plus greens and garlic in sauce, so healthy choice pizza. We make it few time a month for a couple of years now 😉

    hey Katya, just happened to come across your Quinoa Avocado Lettuce Wrap and Avocado Pizza recipes while flipping though other subject areas. Since I enjoy and appreciate both Quinoa and Avocado, it caught my eye immediately. Now, after reading your website, I’m going to try and follow any updates you have. Have been a 70-80% Vegan for 40 years. Exercise a lot, so I enjoy being lean, energetic, physically active. Seems to make me a more friendly person and my body seems to function very fluidly. Thank you for your innovative ideas!!

    I have made this twice this week with some differences. I don’t like pesto so I tried a spicy ranch dressing and a creamy avocado dressing. I also left off the onion and added fajita chicken meat. Wonderful!!!!!!! For the hot summer this is very refreshing.

    I want to try this, but I may sub the pastry crust for califlower, and the mayo for greek yogurt. What do you think?

      Hi Rhonda: I’m not familiar with cauliflower crust but you can definitely substitute greek yogurt for mayo. You may just need to adjust the seasoning a bit and possibly add little more liquid (milk) as yogurt has lower fat content than mayo. Good luck 🙂 Let me know how it turns out!

    I love this pizza so much! I made it once before and am currently making it for a party. I think I might top it with some raw tuna to make it similar to a tuna pizza I get at a sushi place in town. Can’t wait to keep making it!

      Hi Rebecca! So glad you like the pizza. It’s one of my fav’s 🙂 Adding tuna to it sounds so so good. I love sushi and can only imagine that it will taste delish. Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment. Have a great night 🙂

    Being allergic to garlic, that’ll be left out, and I would add both turkey bacon and turkey pepperoni for their protein; minus the garlic, though, I’ll try it you wrote it before adding the meat. Sure sounds wonderful!

      Hi Kay! I’m sorry but no I have no idea of what the nutritional facts are but just like with everything too much of everything is not good for you 🙂 So I keep everything at moderation. You can certainly substitute the crust for whole wheat, paleo, etc as that’s where the most calories would be, if that’s something you’re concerned. Hope this helps! Have a great day.

      Hey there. I’m Making this for today and I cut it into 9 pieces and it figured out to 227 calories a slice, if anyone was wondering.

      Hi Jennifer. You know, I’m still trying to figure out that one 🙂 I normally squeeze lemon juice on mine and keep the avocado tightly wrapped. It helps but I normally try to eat my avocados the day of as I found they taste and look the best. But if you figure a different way, let me know. For your party you can prep the crust and avocado sauce a day in advance and finish it off with rest of the ingredients the day of party. Let me know how it works out and hope you have a great party!!

            Hi Tricia. I would prepare the crust according to recipe directions and let it cool at room temperature all the way. Place it on a baking sheet, cover it with plastic wrap, tightly, and store covered at room temperature. I would not let it go for more than one day. For maximum freshness and taste, prepare the crust day of and your sauce and pesto night before. Hope this helps!

        I do not fool with lemons or limes. I mix the avocado with Jap Juice, and the resultant flavour is exceptional………..no browning here!
