      How big around was it?

      Answering my own question, it is between 8-10" around. It tasted amazing. I made a white pizza with pepperoni. Here's a pic, ignore the giant bite taken out already.

      How big around was it?

      It was about 13 inches long and 9 1/2 inches wide. It could have made 4 meals, easily. There were 8 large pieces, but I was so hungry when I made it, and it tasted so darned good, that I ate half. I got two more, very satisfying meals out of the other half of it.

      I used a large, 1 LB bag of frozen, organic broccoli florets, three whole, large, free range, organic eggs, and some cheese (mozzarella and parmesan) in the crust too, along with some seasoning to taste. I think it would have been good with any sort of cheese, really.

      I would either slightly steam or par-boil it first, or use frozen, which is already blanched before freezing.

      Is the crust crispy or soggy? Sounds too good to be true, I love broccoli on my pizza so I would love to try it in a "crust" but I can't stand a soggy crust. I guess I just assume it's soggy because of the comparisons to a frittata or an omelet.

      It wasn't so much crispy or soggy, as ummm...fluffy. Kinda like good quiche should be.
      I ate it cold the next day and it was great that way too.

      Thanks to all who gave a "warning" about not using parchment paper. I'm going out now to buy all the ingredients and I will make sure to buy parchment paper as well. Guess what I'm having for dinner tonight? I can't wait.

      I don't know how much the OP used, but I used a 1 LB bag of thawed, organic, broccoli florets, with 3 large, whole eggs and the other ingredients, which you could change to your tastes. That ratio of egg to broccoli worked really well for my crust. It was a large pizza though. Good for sharing or having leftovers the next day or two. It was great cold too.
