Using broccoli and arugula as a pizza topping gives this healthy pizza a great twist. The arugula adds a peppery taste—for a milder flavor, use spinach instead. Serve with wedges of fresh tomato tossed with vinegar, olive oil, basil and freshly ground pepper.
Ingredients
Make nutty pizza dough (above recipe)
2 cups chopped broccoli florets
6 cups arugula ,any tough stems removed, chopped
Pinch of sea salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1/2 cup organic tomato sauce (homemade great option as well)
1 cup shredded organic cheese (your favorite)
Preparation
Preheat to 350°F
1.Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface to about the size of the baking sheet. Transfer to the baking sheet. Bake until lightly crisped on the bottom, 8 to 10 minutes.
2.Meanwhile, steam broccoli florets, covered, until the broccoli is al dente (not over-cooked), about 5 minutes. Add in arugula and steam, until wilted, 1 to 2 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper.
3.Spread tomato sauce evenly over the crust, top with the broccoli mixture and sprinkle with cheese. Bake until crispy and golden and the cheese is melted, 5 to 6 minutes.
