Health and fertility benefits of Broccoli and Cheddar Rollups

Broccoli is one of the non-starchy vegetables that has a very low glycemic index (GI), which is beneficial for reducing blood sugar levels. Broccoli is also a source of DIM (Diindolymethane). Diindolymethane is very effective in reducing the testosterone levels in the body, an action that would automatically curb male dominant features and regulate the estrogen levels in the system.

Ingredients

6 oz. broccoli crowns, thinly sliced (about 2 1/4 cups)
1/2 medium onion, thinly sliced
1/4 c. fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 tbsp. olive oil
kosher salt
Pepper
6 oz. extra-sharp Cheddar, coarsely grated
Flour, for the work surface
1 lb. pizza dough, thawed if frozen
2 tbsp. Dijon mustard
Green salad, for serving

Instructions

Heat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the broccoli, onion, parsley, 1 tablespoon oil and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Fold in the cheese.
On a lightly floured work surface, shape the pizza dough into a 14-inch circle, spread with the mustard and cut into 8 triangles. Divide the broccoli mixture among the triangles (about 1/3 cup per triangle). Starting at the wide end, roll dough around the filling.
Transfer rollups to the prepared baking sheet, brush with the remaining tablespoon oil and bake until golden brown, 20 to 22 minutes. Serve with a salad, if desired.
