Broccoli-mushroom pizza
Steam or boil broccoli florets 3 minutes, drain and set aside
Add the olive oil to a medium sized pan and add the onions and garlic, sautee over medium heat about three minutes. Add the mushrooms and saute about three minutes-they should not be fully cooked. Add salt, pepper, red pepper flakes to taste and remove from the heat, set aside
Heat oven to 425 degrees
Prepare a 10 inch pizza pan with by rubbing olive oil all around the pan and sprinkle with corn meal to cover. This keeps the pizza from sticking to the pan and adds a nice crunch!
Place uncooked crust in the pan and stretch out to fit to the rims. Take a fork and dock the dough, which is tapping the fork all around the dough with the tines to keep it from rising unevenly. Cook ten minutes and remove from the oven.
Add the pizza ingredients on top. If you are using a premade crust, you will now add the ingredients as well.
*I do not use tomato sauce but you could use it if you desire. Take ½ cup of your fave sauce and spread it on the top of the pizza crust before adding the other ingredients.
Place the mushroom onion mixture on top of the pizza bringing it to just the inside of the pizza crust. It the mushrooms are watery, use a slotted spoon to place them. Add the mozzarella cheese all over the pizza evenly. Top with the broccoli and press into the cheese. Spring the parmesan all over and place the pizza into the over for ten minutes.
After the pizza is done, remove from the over and let sit for ten minutes to make it easier to cut
Done and enjoy! Serves 2-4 depending on how hungry you are! 😉
