Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 package store-bought pizza dough
- 1 cup pizza sauce
- 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup baby spinach leaves
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 0.75 cup sliced mushrooms
- 0.5 cup red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven to heat up.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough to your desired thickness (approximately 12 inches in diameter for a standard round pizza).
Transfer the rolled-out dough onto a piece of parchment paper for easy handling.
Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, distributing it evenly.
Evenly scatter the baby spinach leaves, cherry tomatoes (halved), sliced mushrooms, and red onion over the cheese layer.
Drizzle the olive oil over the top and season with dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper for extra flavor.
Carefully transfer the pizza (with the parchment paper) onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and crispy, and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes before slicing and serving.
Enjoy your speedy vegetarian pizza with a side salad or garlic bread for a complete meal!
