Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ball (about 12 ounces) Whole wheat pizza dough
- 1 cup Low-sodium pizza sauce
- 1 cup Low-fat mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 0.5 cup Red onion, thinly sliced
- 0.5 cup Green bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 0.5 cup Mushrooms, thinly sliced
- 1 cup Baby spinach leaves
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Dried basil
- 0.5 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1 small spray Olive oil cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) and lightly spray a pizza stone or baking sheet with olive oil cooking spray.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the whole wheat pizza dough into a thin, 12-inch circle. Transfer the dough onto the prepared pizza stone or baking sheet.
Spread the low-sodium pizza sauce evenly across the dough, leaving about a 1/2-inch border around the edges.
Sprinkle the shredded low-fat mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.
Top the pizza with an even layer of cherry tomatoes, red onion slices, green bell pepper slices, mushrooms, and baby spinach leaves.
Sprinkle the dried oregano, dried basil, and crushed red pepper flakes (if using) over the vegetables for added flavor.
Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese has melted and started to bubble.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes. Slice into 8 pieces and serve immediately.
