Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Pizza dough
- 1 cup Spaghetti sauce or pizza sauce
- 10 strips Vegetarian bacon strips
- 1.5 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cup Grated parmesan cheese
- 0.5 cup Red onion
- 0.5 cup Bell pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Dried basil
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a baking sheet or pizza stone inside to heat.
Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness and shape, then transfer it onto a piece of parchment paper for easy handling.
Spread the spaghetti or pizza sauce evenly over the rolled-out dough, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.
Slice the vegetarian bacon strips into smaller pieces and evenly distribute them over the sauce.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated parmesan cheese on top of the bacon.
Slice the red onion and bell pepper into thin strips and scatter them over the cheese layer.
Drizzle olive oil over the toppings, then sprinkle dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper for flavor.
Carefully transfer the pizza with the parchment paper onto the heated baking sheet or pizza stone in the oven.
Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling and slightly browned.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
