High protein hot honey pizza 😍🍕

Ingredients

• 1 medium Delicata Squash (peeled, seeded, and grated or processed into fine shreds)
• 8 oz Ground Turkey (lean (93% lean) for a low‑fat crust)
• 2 large Egg Whites (room temperature)
• 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese (freshly grated)
• 1/2 tsp Salt
• 1/4 tsp Black Pepper (freshly ground)
• 1/2 cup Bell Pepper (sliced thin)
• 1/4 cup Red Onion (thinly sliced)
• 1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes (halved)
• 1/4 cup Tomato Sauce (no‑added‑sugar, optional)
• 1/2 cup Mozzarella Cheese (shredded)
• 2 tbsp Microgreens (for garnish)
• 1 tbsp Honey (light drizzle)
• 1 tsp Frank's RedHot Sauce (or any hot sauce you prefer)
• 1 tbsp Olive Oil (for pan‑frying vegetables)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Squash

   Preheat the oven to 400°F. Peel, seed, and grate the delicata squash using a food processor or box grater. Spread the shredded squash on a parchment‑lined baking sheet and roast for 12‑15 minutes, stirring once, until softened but not browned.

   Time: PT15M

   Temperature: 400°F

2. Make the Turkey‑Squash Crust

   In a large mixing bowl combine the roasted squash, ground turkey, egg whites, grated Parmesan, salt, pepper, and any additional seasonings (e.g., garlic powder, Italian herbs). Mix until a cohesive dough forms; it should hold together when pressed.

   Time: PT5M

3. Shape and Pre‑Bake the Crust

   Transfer the dough onto the parchment paper and press it into a 10‑inch round, about ¼‑inch thick. Bake in the preheated oven for 12 minutes, then flip the crust and bake another 5 minutes until lightly golden.

   Time: PT17M

   Temperature: 400°F

4. Sauté the Vegetables

   While the crust bakes, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium‑high heat. Add sliced bell pepper, red onion, and halved cherry tomatoes. Cook, stirring, for about 5 minutes until softened and lightly caramelized.

   Time: PT5M

5. Assemble the Pizza

   Remove the crust from the oven. Spread the optional tomato sauce evenly, then sprinkle shredded mozzarella. Top with the sautéed vegetables.

   Time: PT3M

6. Broil for Finish

   Switch the oven to broil. Place the pizza under the broiler for 2‑3 minutes, watching closely, until the cheese bubbles and turns golden. Remove immediately to avoid burning.

   Time: PT3M

   Temperature: Broil

7. Add Finishing Touches

   Scatter microgreens over the hot pizza, drizzle with honey, and drizzle the hot sauce (or drizzle hot sauce first then honey, depending on heat preference). Slice and serve immediately.

   Time: PT2M
