Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 12-inch crust whole wheat pizza crust
- 180 grams lean ground beef
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 150 grams low-fat mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 120 grams tomato sauce
- 0.5 medium red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 small green bell pepper, diced
- 100 grams mushrooms, sliced
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon dried basil
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F).
In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
Add the lean ground beef to the skillet. Cook and crumble the beef until it is no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
Drain any excess fat from the skillet, and season the beef with garlic powder, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and remove from heat.
Place the whole wheat pizza crust on a baking sheet or pizza stone.
Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the pizza crust, leaving a small border around the edges.
Sprinkle half of the shredded low-fat mozzarella cheese over the tomato sauce.
Evenly distribute the cooked beef over the cheese layer.
Top the beef with sliced red onions, diced green bell peppers, and sliced mushrooms.
Sprinkle the remaining low-fat mozzarella cheese over the vegetables.
Bake the pizza in your preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
Slice the pizza into 8 pieces and serve warm.
