Ingredients
- 1 ball Whole wheat pizza dough
- 0.5 cup Tomato sauce
- 1 cup Low-fat mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 0.5 Red bell pepper, sliced
- 0.5 Green bell pepper, sliced
- 0.5 Red onion, thinly sliced
- 0.5 cup Mushrooms, thinly sliced
- 0.5 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 handful Fresh basil leaves
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and, if using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while it heats.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the whole wheat pizza dough to a 12-inch round. Transfer it to a piece of parchment paper if using a pizza stone, or to a baking sheet if not.
Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Sprinkle low-fat mozzarella cheese over the tomato sauce.
Arrange the sliced red bell pepper, green bell pepper, red onion, sliced mushrooms, and cherry tomato halves evenly on top of the cheese.
Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables.
Sprinkle dried oregano, black pepper, and a pinch of salt over the top.
Transfer the pizza to the preheated oven. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Garnish with fresh basil leaves.
Slice and serve warm, enjoying your low fat classic vegetarian pizza.
