Quick Veggie Pizza! This vegetable pizza is so quick and easy. This recipe has some of my favorite store-bought items for a quick “homemade” pizza. I love buying the pizza crust brand, Brooklyn BRED. In my local grocery store, this crust is typically found in the bakery section (near the fresh rolls). They offer different varieties that are vegan-friendly. I recently tried the Neapolitan Thin Pizza Crust. It was 100 calories for half the crust. For this recipe, I listed the serving as eight to sixteen, since there are four pizza crust sheets per pack. You can divide each in half for two servings. Otherwise, one can easily eat one crust, cut into three pieces (pictured below). Some of my other favorites are Rao’s Margherita Pizza Sauce and Amore Artichoke Hearts. Like many of my other recipes, you can easily swap out veggies on your pizza. I’ve always always loved broccoli on my pizza. So, that is always a standard for me with veggie pizzas. The fresh garlic, tomatoes, and red onions are also great as toppings for this recipe. I’m listing the ingredients below, however, we had veggie pizzas over two days. Day One – I chopped up all the ingredients. I stored half of the veggies in an air-tight container for the next day. Also, we only used one jar of pizza sauce and one pack of the Brooklyn BRED crust. As previously mentioned, one pack had four crusts. So, keep in mind you can easily divide this recipe. Additionally, you can easily make this recipe with one bunch of broccoli, depending on your preference. Enjoy!

Ingredients:
2 (14oz Packages) Brooklyn BRED Neapolitan Thin Pizza Crust (or pizza crust of your choice)

2 (12oz Jars) Rao’s Margherita Pizza Sauce (or sauce of your choice)

6 to 8 Small Campari Tomatoes, sliced

1 (4.4oz Package) Artichoke Hearts, chopped (rough pieces removed)

8oz Shiitake Mushrooms, sliced thin or chopped

1/2 Red Onion, sliced thin

1 to 2 Tbsp Garlic, minced

1 to 2 Bunches of Broccoli Florets

Extra Virgin Olive Oil, a drizzle to top

Salt/Pepper/Crushed Red Pepper Flakes

Directions:
-Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  Note: The pizza crust directions reference to heat to 400 degrees and bake for four to five minutes. However, I place these directly on a sheet pan, and bake at 425 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes for a crispier crust.
-Top the pizza crusts with sauce, then garlic and begin layering in your veggies according to your preference. Finish with salt/pepper and a drizzle of olive oil, plus additional sauce.
  Note: For the tomatoes, slice thin and drain on a paper towel while you prefer your other veggies.
-Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Reduce baking time if you prefer a softer crust.
-Enjoy!
