When we’re craving comfort food but want to stay on the healthy side, this vegetarian pizza made with wholegrain dough is a total winner. It’s packed with vibrant vegetables, melty mozzarella cheese, and a crust that’s full of fiber and goodness.
Whether we’re making dinner for ourselves or sharing with friends, this pizza brings both flavor and nutrition to the table—and we don’t even need to feel guilty about going for that second slice!

Why Wholegrain Dough Is a Game Changer

Unlike regular white flour bases, wholegrain dough adds a lovely nutty flavor and a chewy texture that holds everything together beautifully. Even better, it’s rich in fiber, which helps us stay full longer and supports better digestion. It also gives our pizza a rustic look and a heartier bite—perfect for a wholesome meal.
If we don’t have time to make the dough from scratch, many stores carry ready-made wholegrain pizza bases that work just as well!

Fresh, Colorful Toppings That Shine

The topping combo is simple but seriously delicious. Here’s what we’ll need:
- 1 wholegrain pizza base
- ½ zucchini, thinly sliced
- 1 ripe tomato, thinly sliced
- 80g mozzarella cheese, shredded or in thin slices
- A pinch of black pepper
- A sprinkle of dried oregano or basil
We’re keeping it light and seasonal here. Zucchini adds a delicate crunch, tomato brings natural juiciness and tang, and mozzarella ties it all together with its creamy richness.

Step-by-Step: Our Healthy Pizza Routine

- Step 1: Preheat the oven to 200°C (392°F).
- Step 2: Place the wholegrain base on a baking tray.
- Step 3: Layer the tomato and zucchini slices evenly across the base.
- Step 4: Sprinkle with black pepper and herbs of your choice (basil, oregano, or rosemary work great).
- Step 5: Add the mozzarella cheese on top. If you love cheese a little more, you can add an extra 20g, but we recommend keeping it light for a balanced taste.
- Step 6: Bake for 8–12 minutes, until the cheese melts and turns slightly golden, and the crust is crisp around the edges.
- Step 7: Slice and serve warm!

What Makes It So Satisfying?

This pizza is light but comforting. The cheese adds enough richness without being too heavy. The veggies give us freshness and nutrients, while the wholegrain base keeps things hearty. Every bite has a lovely balance of savory, sweet, and slightly tangy flavors.
And the best part? We know exactly what’s going into our food—no hidden ingredients, no excess grease, just real, honest goodness.

Tips to Make It Your Own

- Add extra veggies: Bell peppers, mushrooms, or red onions are great additions.
- Boost the flavor: Try a drizzle of olive oil or a garlic-infused sauce under the cheese.
- Looking for more protein? Add a few chickpeas or tofu cubes before baking.
- No oven? Use a covered non-stick pan on low heat for 10–12 minutes.
