Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).
Roll out the whole wheat pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to fit a 12-inch pizza pan.
Transfer the rolled-out dough onto the pizza pan.
Spread the no-salt-added tomato sauce evenly over the crust, leaving a small border around the edges.
Sprinkle the diced low sodium ham evenly over the tomato sauce.
Add the drained pineapple chunks, distributing them evenly over the pizza.
Sprinkle the shredded reduced fat mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.
In a small bowl, mix together the dried oregano, dried basil, and garlic powder.
Sprinkle the herb and garlic mixture evenly over the cheese.
Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown, and the crust is crispy.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
Sprinkle the freshly chopped parsley over the pizza before slicing and serving.
Cut the pizza into 8 slices and serve warm.
