Health and fertility benefits of Primavera Skillet Pizza

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

2 bell peppers, sliced
1/2 head broccoli, florets removed
1/4 small red onion, thinly sliced
1 c. cherry tomatoes
extra-virgin olive oil
kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
All-purpose flour, for dusting surface
1 lb. pizza dough, at room temperature
1 c. ricotta
1 c. shredded mozzarella

Instructions

Heat oven to 400 degrees F. On a large baking sheet, toss peppers, broccoli, onion, and cherry tomatoes with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Roast until tender and tomatoes are bursting, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove and increase oven temperature to 500 degrees F.
Meanwhile, brush an oven-proof skillet with olive oil.
On a floured work surface, use your hands to roll out dough until it's the circumference of your skillet. Transfer to skillet and brush dough all over with olive oil.
Leaving a 1/2" border for crust, dollop spoonfuls of ricotta on dough and sprinkle with mozzarella.
Top with roasted vegetables and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle crust with salt.
Bake until crust is crispy and cheese is melted, about 12 minutes.
