The dough is prepped and proven overnight, then are added dollops of cheesy béchamel sauce topped with more mozzarell That's the cheesy part. Next comes the veggies: Broccoli, spinach and sun-dried tomatoes all thrown on to make a pizza. Finally, vegetarian Parmesan and lemon juice are added to give it a fresh and rich taste."
