Preheat your oven to 475Β°F (245Β°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the whole wheat pizza dough into a thin, round shape about 12 inches in diameter.
Transfer the rolled dough onto a piece of parchment paper for easy handling and cleanup.
Evenly spread the tomato sauce over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.
Sprinkle the low-fat mozzarella cheese evenly over the tomato sauce.
Distribute the turkey pepperoni slices over the cheese, ensuring they are spread out evenly.
Sprinkle red chili flakes and oregano over the top to give the pizza its signature spicy flavor.
Lightly spray the crust edges with olive oil spray to help them crisp up in the oven.
Using a pizza peel or the back of a baking sheet, transfer the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or directly onto the oven rack.
Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for about 12 to 15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven, season with a pinch of salt, and allow it to cool for a couple of minutes.
Top with fresh arugula just before serving for a peppery and fresh bite.
Slice and serve your delicious, low-fat Diavola Pizza hot with a side of mixed greens or enjoy on its own!
