Ingredients

• 3 cups chopped broccoli florets
• 2 large eggs
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a food processor, pulse the chopped broccoli florets until they resemble rice-like texture.
3. Transfer the pulsed broccoli to a microwave-safe bowl and cover it with a lid or a microwave-safe plate. Microwave on high for 4-5 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender.
4. Allow the steamed broccoli to cool slightly, then transfer it to a clean kitchen towel. Wrap the towel around the broccoli and squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible.
5. In a mixing bowl, combine the squeezed broccoli, eggs, Parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese, dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are fully incorporated.
6. Transfer the broccoli mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and shape it into a thin and even pizza crust.
7. Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until it becomes golden brown and crispy.
8. Remove the crust from the oven and add your favorite pizza toppings. Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
9. Once cooked, allow the pizza to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
