Best Broccoli Cheese Stuffed Pizza Recipes
BROCCOLI CRUST PEPPERONI PIZZA
This recipe is sponsored by Birds Eye® Vegetables. This pizza really delivers when it comes to everyone's favorite broccoli-and-cheese flavor combo. The broccoli pulls double duty as both crust and topping, making the pie feel virtuous (goodbye excess carbs) and indulgent (hello golden cheese). We topped ours with pepperoni cups, but you can always leave them off for a vegetarian version or add other toppings - olives, bell peppers or sundried tomatoes would all do well here.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
- Cook the frozen broccoli according to the package directions. Put in a colander and let drain and cool for 10 minutes. Measure out 1 cup of the florets for the topping, breaking them into small pieces if needed; set aside.
- Pulse the remaining broccoli in a food processor, scraping down the sides as necessary, until finely chopped. Put the broccoli, Parmesan, oregano, red pepper flakes, eggs, 3/4 cup of the mozzarella and 3/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl and toss well to combine. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and spread in an even layer. Bake until the crust is golden, about 20 minutes.
- Spread the pizza sauce on the crust, leaving a 1/3-inch border around the edges. Top with the remaining mozzarella followed by the pepperoni and reserved broccoli florets. Bake until the mozzarella is bubbling and golden and the pepperoni is browned, about 15 minutes. Sprinkle with more Parmesan and serve.
BROCCOLI CHICKEN PIZZA
This was inspired by a broccoli cheese stuffed potato recipe I found, but it seemed to be a little labor intensive, so I decided it would work better as pizza. This is an original "sbera007" creation! We were serving 6 so we let our dough rise so it would spread into a jelly roll pan. If using a store bought dough, I would double the dough. Feel free to half the topping for 4 people and use a single store bought dough. Halving the recipe will alter the cooking time a little bit. (NOTE: I included the time for the dough to rise in the recipe time. This will be different if you use a different pizza crust).

SPINACH-STUFFED PIZZA
I had my first stuffed pizza when I attended college near Chicago. I was amazed to see pizza well over an inch thick, with topping on the inside! When I served this version to my family, there are no leftovers. -Nancy Gilmour of Sumner, Iowa

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, combine the basil, 1/2 cup of the olive oil, the salt and tomato puree. Stir together until combined. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours to allow the flavors to marry.
- Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. Place a rack on the highest level and leave space on the bottom of the oven for easy access.
- Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and the sausage and cook, breaking apart with a wooden spoon to form bite-size pieces, until golden brown and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Add the broccoli to the pan and stir to mix with the sausage. Remove from the heat and cool to room temperature.
- Dust an upside-down rimmed baking sheet with the flour. Gently stretch the pizza dough and place on the dusted tray. Continue to stretch out to 1/4-inch thick leaving it a little thicker around the edges. Spread 1 cup of the sauce over the dough and top with the mozzarella. Spread the sausage and broccoli evenly over the crust and top with the Parmesan. Place the sheet tray directly on the bottom of the oven and bake for 5 minutes. Move the tray to the top shelf and finish cooking until golden brown and the crust is cooked, 5 minutes.
