This pizza swaps the classic tomato sauce with a rich beetroot sauce, upgrades the parmesan cheese with mild goat feta, and combines all these oddities with kale – a super green. Who ever said pizza is junk food? We suggest our recipe for pizza dough instead of the store-bought option.
Ingredients for beetroot sauce:
Method of preparing the beetroot sauce:
-
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the beetroot chops in tin foil and wrap them (to prevent burning).
-
Bake the wrapped beetroot for 50 minutes, or until the beetroot softens and juice starts pouring out.
-
Remove the beetroots and blend all the ingredients.
Method of preparing the pizza:
-
Raise the oven's heat to 400°F (200°C). Flatten the dough on a floured surface into a circular shape, and bake the dough as-is for 5-7 minutes.
-
Remove the dough from the oven and apply the beetroot sauce, add the chopped kale, and sprinkle the feta cheese and mozzarella.
-
Re-place the dough into the oven and bake for another 10-20 minutes, until the dough is golden, and the cheese fully melts. Remove from the oven, let it cool for 3 minutes and enjoy.
Chef's Tip:
Some larger kale leaves have a thick white stem running in their middle. Cut it away for a milder texture.
