Slight Food Crush

Healthiest Pizza

Yep, I am still in Mississippi. But I’m in my final week, and it’s a little bitter sweet. I’m going to miss a lot here down, but I am also really excited to get back to Winnipeg to move into my new apartment and to start working again. It’s going to be an exciting year of no school and discovering what I am going to do with my life. Time to become a working woman. Joy. I do have a couple potential job prospects. Send good vibes my way, I need to pay the bills. If worse comes to worst, I can make a mean latte. I can always go back to serving coffee ;)   

Anyway, on to more important things. I was really skeptical about this recipe, and I was actually weirded out with the first couple bites. But as I continued eating, it began to taste really, really good. Like, really. It’s not your traditional pizza, but it’s a great alternative! I will definitely be making this again! 

Healthiest Pizza:

(adapted from blogilates)

Crust:

1/4 cup Quick Cooking Oats

1 tablespoon Flaxseed Meal

1 medium Egg

Toppings:

3 tablespoons pureed Tomatoes (canned)

2 tablespoons frozen Peas

1 small bunch Broccoli Florets (about a 1/4 cup)

2 tablespoons shredded Monterey Jack Cheese

1 tablespoon grated Parmesan Cheese

(use whatever toppings you want, this is all we had in the apartment)

Preheat oven to 350F.

Combine oats, flaxseed, and egg and mix well. Spread on a baking sheet or pie tin, and form into a flat circle.

Cook for around 15-20 minutes.

In the meantime, cut up the broccoli and defrost the peas. Or prepare whatever veggies you decide to use.

When the crust is done, spread the tomato sauce all around. Top with your veggies of choice and sprinkle with cheese.

Put back into a 350F oven for about 10-15 minutes. 

Pull it out when it’s done, slice, and enjoy!

SO good!
