Broccoli and Cauliflower Pizza Crust

 We made these today for lunch after church. First time we tried it, and they turned our really well! The kids all ate it. Ryan and I pretty much followed the recipe on Gimme Delicious to make these crusts.


1 small head of broccoli (about 2-3 cups finely chopped)
2 eggs
¼ cup parmesan cheese
¼ cup mozzarella cheese
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
½ teaspoon Italian seasoning 

Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a pizza pan with parchment paper. Our pans are about 14 inches wide. 

Pulse broccoli in a food processor until finely chopped (the same consistency as rice.) 

Place broccoli in a large bowl, cover and microwave for 1-2 minutes.  Pour onto a stack of paper towels and cover with paper towels and press out as much liquid as possible.  

In a large bowl, eggs, cheeses, and seasoning, then add broccoli. Mix until fully combined. Pour mixture into the pan and shape into a pizza crust. 

Bake for 10-12 minutes or until crust is lightly browned. Remove from the oven and add the pizza sauce, cheese and other toppings. Bake for an additional 10-12 minutes or until the cheese is fully melted. Cool for at least 5 minutes before cutting.

We did the same thing for the cauliflower pizza - But one head of cauliflower made about 4 cups of finely chopped cauliflower. So we increased the cheeses to 1/3 c each and used 3 eggs instead.
