You’ve probably heard of cauliflower pizza crust, but did you know you can make your own veggie pizza crust with broccoli too?! Little chefs will love to help make this kid-favorite featuring broccoli as the star ingredient. We made the crusts mini rounds in this recipe, but feel free to form the broccoli mixture into any flat shape that you’d like (baking time may vary).

This recipe was developed by Happy Kids Kitchen for Veggie Buds Club.

Get your kids in the kitchen: they can help break the broccoli head into florets, add the ingredients to the food processor, press the buttons (kids love this step!), form the crusts, and top their personal pizzas!

You’ve probably heard of cauliflower pizza crust, but did you know you can make your own veggie pizza crust with broccoli too?! Little chefs will love to help make this kid-favorite featuring broccoli as the star ingredient.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 large eggs*
  • 1 1/4 cups grated mozzarella cheese (or dairy-free alternative) divided
  • 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup marinara or pizza sauce
  • Toppings, such as olives, chopped bell peppers, or tomatoes

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Add broccoli to a pot with a cup of water. Bring up to a simmer then lower heat and cover with a lid. Steam broccoli until fork tender but not mushy, about 5 minutes. Drain broccoli then spread out on a clean kitchen towel and allow to cool.
  3. Once broccoli is cooled, pat with the towel to make sure it is completely dry. Place broccoli in a food processor fitted with the metal blade. Add eggs, 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, garlic powder, and salt.
  4. Pulse ingredients in the food processor until everything is well combined and broccoli is finely chopped. Scrape down the sides of the food processor then pulse 2 to 3 more times.
  5. Remove food processor blade and set aside. Scoop one tablespoon of the broccoli mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and form into an even, flat round. Do this free-from or use a round cookie cutter as a guide. Repeat using all of the broccoli mixture.
  6. Bake crusts until golden brown around the edges, 15 to 20 minutes. Top crusts with sauce, cheese, and any other desired toppings. Return to oven until cheese is melted, about 3 to 5 minutes. Enjoy warm.

This recipe sure is a tasty spin on quiche... use shredded sweet potato for the crust! We chose to fill this quiche with wild rice, fresh spinach, bacon, and goat cheese but quiche is such a versatile meal, feel free to omit or add a wide variety of veggies, meat, and cheese.

  • 1/2 cup cooked wild rice
  • 1/2 cup cooked bacon crumbles
  • 2 cups fresh spinach

  • Salt and pepper, to season

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch pie pan using cooking spray or butter.

  3. Place grated sweet potatoes between paper towels and wring out excess moisture over the sink.

  7. Meanwhile, make your filling. Whisk the eggs in a large bowl and add the cooked wild rice, cooked bacon, fresh spinach, goat cheese, and a pinch of salt.
  8. Remove the crust from the oven and allow to cool for about 10 minutes.

These stuffed roasted red peppers are absolutely divine! They are bursting with flavor and yet totally kid-friendly.

"Learn to Love Veggies" Tip

If you think your child will find this dish to be too flavorful, you can simply adjust their servings: examples include omitting the garlic and oregano in the roasting process and omitting the Kalamata olives. Simple roasted red peppers stuffed with orzo pasta and topped with fresh basil is a totally tasty kid meal (and you can still add all of those extra flavors and toppings to the adult servings, yum!).
