Nutritional values

Broccoli convinces with abundant glucosinolates, which are responsible for the typical taste of the florets. In addition, sulfur-containing secondary plant compounds have immune-boosting properties and are even said to reduce the risk of various types of cancer.

There are no limits to creativity when it comes to toppings for the low carb pizza with cheese base. Instead of mozzarella, yellow cherry tomatoes and arugula, how about peppers, spinach, olives and feta as toppings?

Preparation steps

1.

Clean broccoli, wash, divide into florets and chop in a blitz chopper until crumbly. Finely grate both types of cheese and mix thoroughly in a bowl with broccoli, eggs, almonds and flax seeds.

2.

Cover 2 baking sheets with baking paper and spread broccoli mixture in 4 circles (Ø 8-9 inches) on the baking sheets. Pre-bake in preheated oven at 180 °C / 350 ˚F convection oven for approx. 20 minutes.

3.

Meanwhile, peel garlic and puree with chunky tomatoes, tomato paste, oregano, thyme, salt and pepper. Season tomato sauce to taste. Drain mozzarella well and dice.

4.

Spread pre-baked bases with tomato sauce, sprinkle with mozzarella, return to oven and bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes.

5.

Meanwhile, wash and halve the cherry tomatoes. Wash and sort the arugula, drain well and add to the low carb pizzas together with the cherry tomatoes and serve.
