White Pizza with Broccoli

Do you usually go light on the tomato sauce because you are not a big fan? If so, you may want to try white pizza with broccoli. This pizza contains no tomato sauce. Instead, the top of the pizza is layered with mozzarella, Parmesan and sometimes even ricotta. The pizza is then topped with lots of broccoli and garlic. Some people even like to add mushrooms as a topping for extra flavour. Many pizza places offer this variety or you can try making it at home.
