Ingredients
- 1 pound Whole wheat pizza dough
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 cup Pizza sauce
- 1 cup Low-fat mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.5 cup Ricotta cheese, part-skim
- 0.5 cup Feta cheese, crumbled
- 1 cup Cooked chicken breast, diced
- 1 cup Baby spinach
- 0.5 cup Basil leaves, fresh
- 1 teaspoon Oregano, dried
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper, ground

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up as well.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the whole wheat pizza dough to a 12-inch circle.
Transfer the rolled dough onto a sheet of parchment paper and brush the top with olive oil. Sprinkle with garlic powder for added flavor.
Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the base, leaving a small border around the edges.
Sprinkle the low-fat mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.
Dollop spoonfuls of ricotta cheese over the pizza, then sprinkle the Parmesan and feta cheeses evenly across the top.
Distribute the diced chicken breast evenly over the cheeses for an additional protein boost.
Layer the baby spinach over the chicken and cheeses.
Sprinkle fresh basil leaves, dried oregano, black pepper, and a pinch of red pepper flakes over the top for added flavor.
Carefully slide the parchment paper and pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or directly onto the oven rack.
Bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese has melted and bubbled.
Remove the pizza from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, then slice into 8 pieces. Serve hot and enjoy your high protein 4 cheese pizza!
