Equipment

Ingredients

1 ball of pizza dough either store-bought fresh whole wheat pizza dough, or our low calorie pizza dough (linked from the ingredients)
¼ cup marinara sauce or pizza sauce
6 button mushrooms sliced
¼ green bell pepper sliced
¼ red onion thinly sliced
½ roma tomato chopped
6 kalamata olives pitted
4 oz fresh mozzarella sliced
fresh basil leaves

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F for the low calorie pizza base (or anywhere from 350-450 degrees F depending on what type of pizza dough you're using). Line a round pizza pan with parchment paper.
Roll pizza dough and place on the prepared baking tray.
Bake for 5-8 minutes.
Spread a layer of pizza sauce or marinara sauce over the cooked pizza base.
Top with sliced mushrooms, green peppers, red onion, tomatoes and olives.
Place the sliced fresh mozzarella cheese on top of the pizza along with some fresh basil leaves.
Cook the pizza in the oven for 8-15 minutes or until the pizza toppings have cooked and the base is crunchy.
Note: You can also just add toppings straight onto the uncooked, rolled out pizza base, and then bake the pizza in the oven at 390-400 degrees F for 15-20 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbling. If you want a crunchier crust, pre-bake the dough for 5-8 minutes at 400 degrees F, then add the toppings and bake for an additional 8-15 minutes until all of the ingredients have cooked through.
Remove the pizza from the heat, top with more fresh basil leaves, slice into 8 pieces and serve.

Notes

Use my favorite low calorie pizza dough to create a delicious and healthy pizza base.
Pizza base can be rolled thin to create a thin and crispy base or rolled a little thicker to have a softer, fluffier base.
Precooking the pizza base helps to create a lovely crispy base.
Do not overload the pizza with toppings as this will cause the pizza base to not cook thoroughly.
Pizza base dough can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge, covered, for up to 2 days before rolling and cooking or you can roll and cook the base and keep it covered and stored in the fridge for up to 4 days before topping and cooking.
Pizza can be topped with ingredients, covered and frozen for up to 1 month.
Store leftover pizza in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Use my easy and delicious marinara sauce recipe.
Slice the ingredients thinly to ensure even cooking.
To spice it up a little add a sprinkle of dried red pepper flakes.
Don’t have fresh mozzarella? Use grated low moisture mozzarella cheese or grated pizza cheese instead.
