A green pizza helps lose weight

A tragedy to me was that I found myself hardly fit in my newly bought Minnesota Vikings jersey last September when I was excitedly preparing for the new season. I had to change my diet habits so I turned to my friends for suggestions. One of them offered me a recipe for green pizza, which was one of the tastiest low-calories foods I tried during the time.

The green pizza is majorly made of pizza and broccoli florets and I chose arugula, pepper, pesto and part-skim mozzarella cheese as accessories. We also need some water and salt. The tools we need are oven, baking sheet, cooking spray and a large skillet. First of all, preheat the oven to 450°F while coating a large baking sheet with cooking spray. Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface to fit the size of the baking sheet and place it on the sheet before sending them into the oven. We need 8 to 10 minutes before taking the sheet out. While waiting we can cook broccoli and water in the large skillet with over-medium heat.

When the broccoli is crisp-tender about three minutes later, it’s time to stir it with arugula and cook the mixture until they get wilted. Then flavor the mixture with salt and pepper, and it’s almost time to take the curst out. Now spread pesto evenly over the crust, top it with the broccoli mixture and sprinkle with cheese before sending it back into the oven to bake again. It may take another 8 to 10 minutes for the pizza to become crispy and golden and the cheese melts, and the delicious pizza is ready for eating.
