Superfood Pizza
Think pizza can’t be healthy? Then think again!
The Mediterranean diet has long been famous for it’s mainly vegetable based ingredients and unsaturated fats. Many of these ingredients are considered superfoods and so here’s a recipe for a ‘superfood’ pizza that you can put together easily and quickly using ingredients all available here on our website.
All these toppings are packed full of nutrients, vitamins and antioxidants as well as being incredibly tasty.
If you wish to make it even healthier and lower the calories a little, simply use a bit less cheese. You could even skip the cheese altogether for a very low calorie option!
Ingredients:
1 x HPC sourdough pizza base
1 x portion HPC whole milk mozzarella cheese
30g HPC Dried Tomatoes
30g HPC Artichokes Hearts
30g HPC Pitted Black Olives
30g HPC Capers in White Wine Vinegar
1 x 25ml bottle HPC chilli oil
Method:
- Pre-heat your oven to around 185c.
- Remove your pizza bases and mozzarella cheese from the fridge (if cooking from frozen remove from the freezer around 40 minutes before use. Although they will successfully cook straight from frozen if required). Place pizza onto a clean work surface and remove the outer wrap packaging.
- Add around half the mozzarella to the pizza base and spread across the pizza evenly, ensuring to cover evenly right up to the edge of the tomato sauce.
- Place the toppings onto the pizza except the chilli oil.
- Sprinkle on the rest of the mozzarella and top with dried oregano. (optional)
- Place the fully topped pizza directly onto the oven shelf bars (no need to use a baking tray) and bake for around 6-7 minutes until the cheese is golden brown and toppings are cooked through.
- Drizzle over the chilli oil.
- Cut your pizza into slices and enjoy!
Top Tip:
This pizza will be very enjoyable with a large glass of quality Italian red wine such as a Chianti!
