Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Whole wheat pizza dough
- 0.5 cup No-salt-added tomato sauce
- 1 cup Low sodium mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 4 ounces Low Sodium cooked ham, thinly sliced
- 0.5 cup Fresh pineapple, cut into small chunks
- 0.5 small Red onion, thinly sliced
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried basil
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Cornmeal (for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.
While the oven is preheating, prepare your workspace by lightly dusting it with cornmeal. This will prevent the dough from sticking.
Roll out the whole wheat pizza dough into a 12-inch circle, leaving the edges slightly thicker to form a crust.
Transfer the rolled-out dough to a pizza peel or an upside-down baking sheet if you're using a pizza stone, or directly onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
In a small bowl, mix the no-salt-added tomato sauce with black pepper, dried oregano, and dried basil.
Spread the seasoned sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
Sprinkle the shredded low sodium mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.
Distribute the low sodium ham slices, fresh pineapple chunks, and red onion slices evenly over the cheese layer.
Drizzle with olive oil for added flavor and enhance the cheese melting.
If using, transfer the pizza onto the preheated stone in the oven, or place the baking sheet directly in the oven.
Bake the pizza for about 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
Remove the pizza from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes.
Slice the pizza into 6 slices and serve warm. Enjoy your low sodium ham and pineapple pizza!
