Pizza Stir-Fry
Description
This Pizza Stir-Fry begins with sautéing onion, bell pepper, and optionally pepperoni in coconut oil until softened. Shredded kale and cabbage are added with tomato paste, salt, and oregano, cooking covered to wilt and tenderize the greens. Water is added as needed to prevent sticking, and once the vegetables are tender, the pot is uncovered to evaporate remaining moisture, concentrating flavor and ensuring a non-soggy dish.
The tomato paste lends a savory, umami quality reminiscent of pizza sauce, while oregano adds traditional pizza herb notes. The optional pepperoni contributes a smoky, spiced flavor contrast. Topping with crumbled feta adds creamy saltiness and a tangy bite upon serving.
This stir-fry works well as a vegetable side or a main course, serving warm. The mix’s hearty texture from cabbage and kale complements the rich tomato and spice elements, making it suitable for a vegetable-centric meal that hints at pizza flavors without the crust.
