Zucchini Crusted Pizza


  • 3 cups shredded zucchini




  • 3/4 cup egg substitute  (I used 3 eggs)


  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour


  • 1/2 teaspoon salt


  • 2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese  (I used cheddar)


  • 2 small tomatoes, halved and thinly sliced


  • 1/2 cup chopped onion


  • 1/2 cup julienned green pepper


  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil


  • 3 tablespoons shredded Parmesan cheese


  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano




  • Additional topping ideas: pepperoni, olives, grilled chicken etc.

    Directions
    1. Squeeze excess moisture out of zucchini and let sit for about 5 minutes. In a bowl, combine zucchini and egg substitute; mix well. Add flour and salt; stir well. Spread onto the bottom of a 12-in. pizza pan coated with nonstick cooking spray.
    2. Bake at 450 degrees F for 8 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F. Sprinkle with mozzarella, tomatoes, onion, green pepper, oregano, basil and Parmesan cheese and other optional toppings. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until onion is tender and cheese is melted.

    Original recipe from Allrecipes.com, but I've made a few adjustments :)
