Best Zucchini Pizza

Recipe Description

I love homemade pizza night and considering zucchini is one of my favorite veggies, this Zucchini Pizza makes me and my whole family extremely happy. I use prepared pizza dough that I store in the freezer or you can also buy premade, packaged pizza dough.

Easy, peezy pizza with zucchini, garlic, mozzarella cheese, crumbled goat cheese, chive slices and cherry tomatoes as toppings. You’ll notice, I don’t use a tomato sause base for this pizza because it’s nice to change things up every little while.

To make Best Zucchini Pizza, you will need the following ingredients:

Toss a few times to help release the water.

Man, this Zucchini Pizza is a game changer. I whipped it up for my buddies on game night, and they couldn’t get enough. Using frozen dough made it super quick, and the combo of gooey mozzarella and tangy goat cheese was just right. Honestly, the flavors blew my mind. Definitely a go-to for pizza nights.
