FOUR CHEESE WHITE BROCCOLI PIZZA (EASY)



Four Cheese White Broccoli Pizza (Easy) image

A fabulous white pizza... again, four cheeses are used (grated parmesan, provolone, ricotta, & mozzarella) as well as fresh broccoli florets. You could substitute with spinach if you like, but we LOVE this recipe as is... I buy the pre-made pizza dough from my grocery store to save time, but you could always make your own of course. Also, I use MILD provolone - it's pre-packaged & pre-sliced think it is Belgioioso brand. Note: I use the 12 oz. bag of "Broccoli Wokly" which is already cut into florets - I steam it according to the package directions first in the bag & use the full bag on the pizza.

BROCCOLI CRUST PEPPERONI PIZZA



Broccoli Crust Pepperoni Pizza image

This recipe is sponsored by Birds Eye® Vegetables. This pizza really delivers when it comes to everyone's favorite broccoli-and-cheese flavor combo. The broccoli pulls double duty as both crust and topping, making the pie feel virtuous (goodbye excess carbs) and indulgent (hello golden cheese). We topped ours with pepperoni cups, but you can always leave them off for a vegetarian version or add other toppings - olives, bell peppers or sundried tomatoes would all do well here.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Two 10.8-ounce bags frozen broccoli florets, such as Birds Eye®️ Steamfresh®️ Broccoli Florets
1/2 cup grated Parmesan (about 1.75 ounces), plus more for topping
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
One 8-ounce bag shredded low-moisture, part-skim mozzarella
Kosher salt
1/2 cup store-bought pizza sauce (4 ounces)
1 cup pepperoni slices (about 2 ounces)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
  • Cook the frozen broccoli according to the package directions. Put in a colander and let drain and cool for 10 minutes. Measure out 1 cup of the florets for the topping, breaking them into small pieces if needed; set aside.
  • Pulse the remaining broccoli in a food processor, scraping down the sides as necessary, until finely chopped. Put the broccoli, Parmesan, oregano, red pepper flakes, eggs, 3/4 cup of the mozzarella and 3/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl and toss well to combine. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and spread in an even layer. Bake until the crust is golden, about 20 minutes.
  • Spread the pizza sauce on the crust, leaving a 1/3-inch border around the edges. Top with the remaining mozzarella followed by the pepperoni and reserved broccoli florets. Bake until the mozzarella is bubbling and golden and the pepperoni is browned, about 15 minutes. Sprinkle with more Parmesan and serve.

BROCCOLI RABE PIE



Broccoli Rabe Pie image

This unique spin on a traditional pizza from from Jim Lahey, author of "My Pizza," features creamy bechamel sauce, provolone cheese, and slightly bitter broccoli rabe.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking

Yield Makes one 10- to 12-inch pizza

Number Of Ingredients 9

Fine sea salt
5 stalks broccoli rabe, tough ends trimmed, coarsely chopped
All-purpose flour
1 ball Quick Basic Pizza Dough
1/4 cup Jim Lahey's Bechamel Sauce
1 medium clove garlic, chopped
1 ounce provolone cheese, shredded
1 1/2 ounces fresh mozzarella, torn into 5 clumps
1/4 teaspoon chopped fresh Thai pepper, stemmed; seeds removed for less heat, if desired

Steps:

  • Place a pizza stone in a gas oven on a rack about 8 inches from the broiler. Preheat oven on bake at 500 degrees for 30 minutes. Switch to broil for 10 minutes. If broiler is on the bottom of the oven, place stone in broiler and preheat on low for 20 minutes; increase heat to high and heat 5 minutes more. If using an electric oven, place stone on a rack about 4 inches from the top heating element; preheat on bake at 500 degrees for 30 minutes. Open oven door a few inches and leave ajar about 30 seconds. Close and switch to broil for 10 minutes.
  • Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil over high heat; immediately reduce to a simmer and add broccoli rabe. Cook for 10 seconds; drain and set aside.
  • Generously flour dough, hands, and work surface. Press dough down and gently stretch it out to 6 to 8 inches. Very carefully continue the process, massaging it into a round disk of 10 to 12 inches, shaping with the palms of your hands and your fingers; you want some of the bubbles to remain in the dough. It should look slightly blistered. Flour a pizza peel and lift dough onto the center.
  • Spoon bechamel over surface of dough and spread evenly, leaving a 1-inch border. Sprinkle surface with garlic and provolone. Evenly distribute mozzarella over top. Cover with broccoli rabe and sprinkle with Thai pepper and a pinch of salt.
  • Using quick, jerking motions, slide pizza onto stone. Broil until top is bubbling and crust is nicely charred but not burned, about 3 1/2 minutes for gas and about 5 1/2 minutes for electric. Transfer pizza to serving platter; slice and serve immediately.

BROCCOLI, LEMON, AND GOUDA PIZZAS



Broccoli, Lemon, and Gouda Pizzas image

Here, the classic white pie goes green in the most delicious way: charred broccoli florets and paper-thin slices of lemon meld with sharp gouda and nutty Parmesan cheeses to make this gourmet-level pizza at home. The pizza dough will need 1 to 2 hours to rise, so plan accordingly. Alternatively, you can make the dough the day before and let it rise overnight in the fridge.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Healthy Recipes     Vegetarian Recipes

Time 1h20m

Yield Serves 2 to 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 teaspoon active dry yeast (not rapid rise), from a 1/4-ounce envelope
1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 cup unbleached bread flour
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 cups small broccoli florets (from 1 small head)
12 paper-thin lemon slices (from 2 lemons)
4 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
2 ounces Gouda cheese, grated (1/2 cup)
2 teaspoons tender fresh rosemary leaves
1 ounce Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, grated (1/4 cup)

Steps:

  • Whisk yeast into 3/4 cup warm water (110°) in a medium bowl; let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Add both flours and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt; stir until a dough forms, then turn out onto a clean work surface. Knead, dusting with flour as needed, until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.
  • Return to bowl and cover with plastic wrap; let stand 30 minutes. Transfer to refrigerator and let rise overnight until dough doubles in size (or let dough proof at room temperature, 1 to 2 hours).
  • Preheat oven to 500°, with a pizza stone or upside-down baking sheet placed on a rack in the lower middle. Lightly dust work surface with flour; turn dough out. Divide in two and form each piece into a ball. Cover with plastic wrap; let stand 30 minutes to warm slightly and relax gluten. Meanwhile, toss broccoli with lemon slices and oil; season with salt and pepper.
  • Starting in center of one ball of dough, use both hands to stretch outward, rotating occasionally. Gradually work toward edges, leaving a 1-inch border of undisturbed dough for the crust, until stretched to an approximately 9-inch round. Line either a pizza peel, a thin wooden cutting board, or another upside-down baking sheet with a sheet of parchment paper.
  • Transfer dough round to parchment-lined surface. Season dough with salt and pepper; drizzle with oil. Sprinkle with half of broccoli mixture. Top with half of Gouda and half of rosemary. With one quick forward-and-back jerking motion, slide pizza (with parchment) from peel onto stone in oven.
  • Bake until crust is puffed and golden brown in places and set on bottom, and broccoli is cooked and charred in places, 13 to 15 minutes. Transfer pizza (with parchment) to a wire rack; let cool 5 minutes. Sprinkle with half of Parmigiano. Repeat with second dough ball and remaining ingredients.
