Instructions:
- Thinly slice the pepperoni if it isn’t pre-sliced.

- Chop the broccoli florets into small pieces.
- If using an oven, preheat to 450°F (230°C).
- If using a toaster oven, preheat to a similar temperature or select the ‘toast’ function.

- Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the broccoli.

- Carefully remove the pizza from the oven, toaster oven, or microwave.
- Let it cool slightly before slicing.

Tips:
- Preheat the oven or toaster oven to achieve the perfect crispy crust and melted cheese.
- Consider using pre-shredded mozzarella cheese to save time.
