- 1.5 cups Part-skim mozzarella cheese
- 15 slices Turkey pepperoni slices
- 1 link Chicken sausage, cooked and sliced
- 0.5 Red onion, thinly sliced
- 0.5 Green bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat.
Roll out the whole wheat pizza dough into a 12-inch circle on a lightly floured surface.
Carefully remove the hot pizza stone or baking sheet from the oven and drizzle with olive oil.
Transfer the rolled-out dough onto the prepared stone or baking sheet.
Spread the pizza sauce evenly onto the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Sprinkle the part-skim mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.
Arrange the turkey pepperoni slices and chicken sausage slices on top of the cheese.
Distribute the red onion and green bell pepper slices evenly over the top.
Sprinkle the Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes over all the toppings.
Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
Cut the pizza into 8 slices and serve hot.
