Vegetable Pizza
Healthy, because
Even smarter
One thing is clear: You can't go wrong with a colourful vegetable selection! Because they offer a wide range of nutrients, including the immune-strengthening vitamin C from red peppers and the mineral potassium from zucchini, which ensures a balanced fluid balance. The strained tomatoes score points with the strong antioxidant lycopene, which protects the body cells and can have a positive effect on the cardiovascular system.
If you are a cheese fan, then you will love to spice up your vegetable tarte flambée with a spicy Parmesan or pecorino! Alternatively, you can prepare a pesto with rocket, capers and parmesan and then put it on the tarte flambée.
