How to make pizza without flour: 5 healthy recipes revealed

The main feature of healthy pizza is the absence of flour and standard dough. Instead, chicken, quinoa, spinach, sweet potatoes, and even cauliflower are used.

According to nutritionist Marta Moreno, flour is a product that should not be overused. Currently, it is already overused, but the diet should be based on fresh food. OBOZREVATEL offers to familiarize yourself with a selection of 5 healthy recipes published on abc.es.
