Crab Dip Pizza with Broccoli Cauliflower Carrot Crust
I love crab dip and thought crab dip on a pizza seemed like a good idea. I like packing vegetables into my pizza crust. I had broccoli, cauliflower, and carrots I needed to use up, so I decided to combine those in my pizza crust.
Ingredients:
Crust-
2 cups broccoli florets
1 cup cauliflower florets
2 large carrots
2 eggs
1 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning
¼ cup reduced fat shredded cheddar cheese
¼ cup shredded Monterrey jack cheese
Toppings:
baby spinach, diced bell pepper, cherry tomatoes
Crab Dip-
1 pound crab meat
½ cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
1/2 sweet onion diced
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons Worcestershire
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1-2 teaspoons hot sauce
½ cup reduced fat shredded cheddar cheese
½ cup shredded Monterey jack cheese
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with olive oil spray.
- Add broccoli, cauliflower, and carrots to a food processor one at a time. Pulse to chop. Then use a spatula to transfer to a medium bowl.
- Add eggs and Old Bay and mix to combine with the diced vegetables.
- Fold in the shredded cheeses.
- Spread the mixture out in an even layer on the baking sheet until crust is ¼ inch thick.
- Bake 15 minutes.
- Mix crab meat, yogurt, onion, lemon juice, Worcestershire, Dijon, and hot sauce in a medium bowl. Fold in shredded cheeses.
- Sprinkle a layer of baby spinach on the crust.
- Spread crab dip mixture on the pizza. I used half on this pizza and on a stuffed crust pizza for my kids.
- Add tomatoes and bell pepper.
- Sprinkle some more shredded cheese on top if you really like cheese like my family.
- Bake 10-15 more minutes.
- Enjoy!
