Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ball (enough for a 12-inch pizza) pizza dough
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 cup pizza sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cup sliced bell peppers
- 0.25 cup sliced red onions
- 0.5 cup sliced mushrooms
- 0.25 cup sliced black olives
- 0.25 cup sliced cherry tomatoes
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or an upside-down baking sheet on the middle rack.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer it onto a piece of parchment paper.
Brush the surface of the dough with olive oil, leaving about an inch around the edges unbrushed.
Evenly spread the pizza sauce over the dough, again leaving the edges for the crust.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
Arrange the sliced bell peppers, red onions, mushrooms, black olives, and cherry tomatoes evenly over the cheese.
Sprinkle the dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and ground black pepper over the vegetables.
Using a pizza peel or a baking sheet, carefully transfer the pizza (with the parchment paper) onto the hot pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing into 8 pieces.
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious vegetable pizza slices!
