Lots of fresh veggies are the heart of this intensely delicious pie, but mozzarella and Parmesan cheese are baked into the zucchini crust, and then goat cheese is melted on top for an amazing final touch of creaminess. That's right, this pizza features three kinds of cheese! It's also topped with a medley of cremini mushrooms, garlic, red peppers, and onions for a super-savory combination of textures, flavor, and color. It'll be a crowd-pleaser for both meat eaters and vegetarians alike, we guarantee it. For added convenience, the crust can be made a day or two ahead and reheated in the oven before topping and serving.

Ingredients

Cooking spray

4 spray(s)

Uncooked zucchini

2 cup(s), sliced, shredded, drained well

Shredded part skim mozzarella cheese

½ cup(s)

Grated Parmesan cheese

3 Tbsp

All-purpose flour

¼ cup(s)

Italian seasoning

¾ tsp, divided

Kosher salt

¾ tsp, divided

Jarred minced garlic

½ tsp, divided

Olive oil

1 tsp

Egg

1 large egg(s), well beaten

Cremini mushroom

1 cup(s), sliced, chopped

Red bell pepper

1 cup(s), diced

Onion

½ cup(s), chopped, diced

Soft goat cheese

8 Tbsp, (1/2 cup) crumbled

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a large rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper; coat with cooking spray.
  2. Squeeze as much liquid out of zucchini as possible with your hands; place in a large mixing bowl. Add mozzarella, Parmesan, flour, 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning, 1/2 tsp Kosher salt, 1/4 tsp minced garlic, oil and egg to bowl; combine until mixed.
  3. Spoon crust mixture into two 8-inch circles on prepared pan; smooth with a spoon to form an even layer. Bake until medium brown on bottom, 20 minutes; carefully flip over. Bake until evenly browned, 10-15 minutes more.
  4. While crust bakes, coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms, peppers and onion; cook, stirring often, until softened, 5-8 minutes. Add remaining 1/4 tsp each garlic, Italian seasoning and salt to skillet; stir and heat 30 seconds.
  5. Spoon vegetable mixture evenly across pizza; sprinkle with goat cheese. Return to oven; bake until cheese melts, 3-5 minutes. Slice each pizza into 4 pieces; serve.
  6. Serving size: 2 slices
