Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 package Store-bought pizza dough
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 cup Pizza sauce
- 1.5 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup Sliced bell peppers (any color)
- 0.5 cup Sliced red onion
- 0.75 cup Sliced mushrooms
- 0.5 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 cup Baby spinach
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle or rectangle, depending on your preference.
Transfer the rolled-out dough to a piece of parchment paper for easy handling.
Brush the dough with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, leaving about 1/2 inch around the edges unbrushed to create a crust.
Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the oiled dough, leaving the same 1/2-inch border around the edges.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.
Top the pizza with the sliced bell peppers, red onion, mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, and baby spinach, evenly distributing the vegetables across the surface.
Drizzle the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over the vegetables.
Sprinkle dried oregano and red pepper flakes (if using) over the top for added flavor.
Carefully transfer the parchment paper with the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven and allow it to cool for 2-3 minutes before slicing.
Cut into slices and serve immediately. Enjoy your Shamelessly Easy Veggie Pizza!
