Hummus, Pesto, Granola & More
Original Hummus
Spicy and full of fresh garlic. This is the flavor we have offered in the restaurant for 30 years.
Black Bean Sriracha Hummus
Chickpeas and Black Beans paired with spicy Sriracha sauce.
Beet Hummus
Delicious beet flavor in a chickpea base. People that think they don't like beets still love this hummus.
Carrot Hummus
A touch of spice and a touch of sweet lend a perfect balance to our carrot hummus.
Classic Hummus
Our take on traditional hummus, smooth texture with hints of sesame and citrus.
Basil Pesto
Traditional basil pesto with walnuts and parmesan cheese.
Spinach Sundried Tomato Pesto
Long time Tomato Head customers still know this as vegan pesto. Dairy and nut free, this zingy spread is fantastic on sandwiches or as a dip.
12 oz. Dressing
Apple Pecan Granola 12oz. bag
Wholesome and hearty organic oats combine with the intense flavor and sweetness of dried apples and the rich nuttiness of pecans to give our granola a satisfying taste of southern living. Gently sweetened by honey and brown sugar with a delicious hint of vanilla, Flour Head Apple Pecan Granola helps get you up and keep you going with nutrition/nourishment that tastes as good as it is good for you.
Coconut Granola 12oz bag
The hearty flavor of organic oats makes a perfect partner to the tropical goodness of coconut – especially when mingled with comforting tastes of home like brown sugar, vanilla and a dollop of golden, sun-kissed honey. Accented with a whisper of exotic spice, this cheerful crunch is a mouthful of satisfaction, a little sunshine and a lot of contentment that will get you up and keep you going. Size: 12oz bag.
12oz Bag Tomato Head Blend by Mahalo
Our own roast, crafted by our friends at Mahalo Coffee Roasters, located here in Knoxville.

Pizza is 9.4 light fluffy yet crispy crust.. Olive oil base 4cheese sub ricotta, garlic and oregano light char.

Place is large, nice music but, plain/clean cut for the area and the quality of food. I'm only mentioning since Google asked. The art is a nice touch. Maybe more I don't know.

do many delicious, healthy options and the price is right! My favorite is the “oh boy” sandwich on their homemade rosemary bread. Lots of gluten free options too! A favorite stop when I’m in Knoxville!

Located in both Market Square and West Knoxville, The Tomato Head is a beloved local institution for vegetarian-friendly, fresh, and creative cuisine. The vibe is artsy and eclectic, with rotating local art on the walls and a laid-back, family-friendly feel.

The menu includes sandwiches, salads, pizzas, and daily specials that highlight fresh produce and house-made sauces. I ordered the “Oh Boy!” pizza with roasted potatoes, onions, spinach, and pesto—it...
