Broccoli and Cheddar Pizza

Broccoli and Cheddar Pizza

1 tablespoon + 2 teaspoons olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 cups thawed frozen chopped broccoli
1/2 cup part skim ricotta cheese
1 pizza crust dough
1 teaspoon sesame seed
3 ounces Cheddar, shredded
3 ounces part skim, mozzarella shredded
2 teaspoons grated Parmesan cheese
dash of pepper

Preheat oven to 425F. In a 10 inch nonstick skillet heat oil; add
garlic and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until golden
brown, about 1 minute. Add broccoli and cook, stirring occasionally,
until broccoli is thoroughly heated, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat;
stir in ricotta cheese and set aside. Spray 12 inch round pizza pan
with nonstick cooking spray; fit pizza crust dough into pan. Spread
broccoli mixture evenly over dough, leaving 1/2 inch of outer edge of
dough uncovered. Sprinkle sesame seed over outer edge of dough.
Sprinkle cheddar and mozzarella cheeses over broccoli mixture, then
sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and pepper. Bake until pizza crust is
lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes.
