Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ball (approximately 12 inches in diameter) Whole wheat pizza dough
- 150 grams Low-fat turkey sausage
- 100 grams Pizza sauce
- 100 grams Reduced-fat mozzarella cheese
- 1 medium, sliced Red bell pepper
- 1 small, sliced Onion
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Dried basil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- as needed Olive oil cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the whole wheat pizza dough to a 12-inch circle. Transfer it carefully to a piece of parchment paper or a pizza peel dusted with flour to prevent sticking.
Spray a non-stick skillet with olive oil cooking spray and place it over medium heat. Add the low-fat turkey sausage, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks. Cook for about 5 minutes, until the sausage is browned and fully cooked. Remove it from the heat and set aside.
Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the rolled-out dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Sprinkle the reduced-fat mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.
Top with cooked turkey sausage, sliced red bell pepper, and sliced onion.
Sprinkle the dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper evenly over the toppings.
Carefully slide the assembled pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet using the parchment paper or pizza peel.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese has melted and is bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven and allow it to cool briefly before slicing into 8 slices.
Serve hot and enjoy your delicious low-fat sausage pizza slices.
