Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Whole wheat pizza dough (low sodium, store-bought or homemade)
- 6 ounces Tomato paste (no salt added)
- 0.5 cup Water
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Dried basil
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese (low sodium)
- 0.5 cup Cooked chicken breast (unsalted, shredded or diced)
- 0.5 cup Sliced green bell pepper
- 0.25 cup Sliced red onion
- 0.25 cup Sliced black olives (low sodium variety)
- 0.5 cup Mushrooms (sliced)
- 0.5 cup Fresh spinach leaves (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Cornmeal (for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). Place a pizza stone or inverted baking sheet in the oven as it heats to achieve a crisp crust.
In a small bowl, make the low sodium pizza sauce by combining the tomato paste, water, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, dried basil, and black pepper. Mix well and set aside.
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle or your preferred shape. If you’re using homemade dough, ensure it has risen per recipe instructions before rolling.
Sprinkle a bit of cornmeal on a sheet of parchment paper. Place the rolled-out dough onto the parchment paper. This will make it easier to transfer the pizza.
Spread an even layer of the prepared low sodium pizza sauce over the dough, leaving about 1 inch of crust around the edges.
Sprinkle the shredded low sodium mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.
Top the pizza with the shredded chicken, green bell pepper, red onion, black olives, mushrooms, and spinach, or adjust the toppings as desired.
Carefully transfer the parchment paper with the assembled pizza onto the preheated stone or baking sheet in the oven.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown, the cheese is melted, and the toppings are cooked through.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it rest for 2-3 minutes before slicing and serving.
Enjoy your homemade Low Sodium Supreme Pizza, perfect for a heart-healthy meal!
