FAQ

What are the best veggies to put on pizza?

Fresh tomatoes, onions, arugula, kale, eggplants, bell peppers, spinach, zucchini, mushrooms and more. They all make flavorsome vegetarian pizza toppings. Some vegetables need to be cooked or roasted to bring out their flavors, while others vegetables are best when they’re raw.

Do you cook veggies before putting on pizza?

Not pre-cooking your toppings

Because pizza cooks at such high temperatures, it’s tempting to just allow your toppings to cook directly on the crust. This is fine for most veggies, but never take the chance with meat. Make sure to cook all meats and even tougher veggies like broccoli ahead of time.

How do you make vegetable pizza not soggy?

Veggies of any sort are the healthiest pizza toppings! This includes red peppers, spinach, tomatoes, onions, garlic, broccoli, kale, eggplant, squash, artichokes, mushrooms and arugula. These vegetables are high in vitamins and minerals, while being low in calories. They also pack tons of flavor!
