Ingredients

1 pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
½ cup pizza sauce or marinara sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
½ cup bell peppers, thinly sliced
½ cup red onions, thinly sliced
½ cup cherry tomatoes, halved
½ cup mushrooms, sliced
1 small zucchini, thinly sliced
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp dried oregano
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh basil leaves (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C).
Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness and place it on a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet.
Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.
Arrange the bell peppers, onions, tomatoes, mushrooms, and zucchini on top of the cheese.
Drizzle olive oil over the veggies and sprinkle with dried oregano, salt, and pepper.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and melted.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving (optional).

Notes

You can add any other vegetables you like, such as spinach, olives, or artichokes.
If you prefer a crispier crust, you can pre-bake the dough for 5 minutes before adding the sauce and toppings.
For a vegan version, you can use dairy-free cheese.
