Cotija and Avocado Pizza
Cotija is savory and tangy where avocado is rich and fresh, a contrast that keeps every bite interesting.
A crumbly, salty Mexican cheese that adds a sharp, milky tang to non-traditional pizzas. Creamy avocado slices add a rich, buttery freshness to pizza as a luxurious post-bake topping. On a Tomatillo Salsa Verde base, the sauce's tangy and bright character ties the two together. The combination is fully vegetarian.

Frequently Asked Questions
What sauce goes best with cotija and avocado pizza?
Tomatillo Salsa Verde is the strongest match. Its tangy, bright and smoky profile supports both cotija and avocado without crowding them. Gochujang Cream Sauce is a good second choice if you want a different direction.
What else goes well with cotija and avocado on pizza?
Sweet corn and jalapeno all pair well with both toppings, so any of them can join without unbalancing the pizza. Add one rather than all of them: two or three toppings per pizza keeps each one distinct.
