If you are making your own barbecue sauce and pizza dough, and vegan mozzarella, grab the recipes and make those first.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Pat tofu dry with paper towels, and cut into very small pieces (1/4 inch). Toss in a bowl with the soy sauce, place on parchment paper lined baking sheet, and bake for 25 minutes.
Remove from the oven, mix in 1-2 tablespoons of barbecue sauce, and put back in the oven for 10 more minutes. Set aside. Increase the oven to 425 degrees F.

Roll out your pizza dough, place it on a pizza pan, and spread with about 1/3 cup of the barbecue sauce. Top with the tofu pieces, dollops of cheese, red onion slices and pineapple.
Bake for about 10-12 minutes until the crust is golden brown. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro and red pepper flakes, if desired. Slice and serve.

If you can't have tofu or don't like it, you can use chickpeas (garbanzo beans) instead. Simply bake them in the oven with a few tablespoons of barbecue sauce for 20-30 minutes at 350 degrees.
For Gluten Free, I love this pizza crust recipe: Gluten Free Pizza Crust. And make sure to use gluten free tamari instead of soy sauce.
If you are short on time, buy pre-made pizza dough. Trader Joe's and Whole Foods have good ones you can buy, and I'm sure other stores do as well.
I usually double this recipe, as I have a hungry family of 5, and sometimes 6.
