This inventive pizza uses cooked brown rice to form its base, creating a satisfyingly different crust. The rice is bound with eggs and cheese, then baked until set before being layered with rich pizza sauce, fresh vegetables, and a final blanket of melted mozzarella. It's a speedy and fun alternative to traditional dough, perfect for a fast family meal or a creative lunch.
