Eggplant pizza is a healthy and delicious alternative to traditional pizza that features sliced eggplant as the crust instead of traditional pizza dough. The eggplant slices are typically brushed with olive oil and roasted until tender before being topped with pizza sauce, cheese, and your choice of toppings. The pizza is then baked until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Eggplant pizza can be a great option for those who are looking for a low-carb or gluten-free pizza alternative, or for those who simply want to incorporate more vegetables into their diet. It can be customized with a variety of toppings such as mushrooms, onions, bell peppers, olives, and pepperoni, making it a versatile dish that can suit a range of taste preferences.
