This is the simplest way ever to make a healthier pizza: Mixing cooked quinoa or millet with eggs, pressing this mixture into an oven dish and baking it. It’s a great idea to always make a bigger portion of whole grains anyway since they last for up to four days in the fridge. If your whole grain is already cooked, this dish really just takes 15 minutes. No messy doughs or complicated ingredients - and did I mention it is also gluten-free!
You can also use this crust as a base for garlic ‘bread’. Mix together a little olive oil, minced garlic, salt and dried oregano and pour this mixture over the crust without putting it back in the oven. Delicious!
Ingredients:
- 2 cups cooked quinoa or millet (that’s 1/2 cup uncooked)
- 2 medium sized eggs
- a dash of salt and a handful of dried herbs (optional)
Method:
- Pre-heat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius.
- Mix quinoa or millet with the eggs and salt and combine with your hands to create a dough. You can also add some dried oregano for more taste.
- Press the dough into a baking dish and bake until it is cooked (about 15 minutes).
- Remove from the oven and add toppings of your choice. Place back in the oven until cheese melts.
