Ingredients
  

  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • 1 13.8-ounce / 391-gram package refrigerated pizza dough
  • 1 tablespoon (15 ml / 0.5 fl oz) olive oil
  • 2 medium roma tomatoes, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup (480 ml) (75 grams / 2.65 oz) sliced roasted red and/or yellow sweet pepper
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) (15 grams / 0.53 oz) shredded fresh spinach leaves (optional)
  • 1 cup (240 ml) (113 grams / 4 oz) shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon (20 ml) (1 gram / 0.04 oz) coarsely ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) (5 grams / 0.18 oz) snipped fresh basil
  • Make It Vegan: Easily make this pizza vegan by substituting the mozzarella with your favorite dairy-free, mozzarella-style shreds.
  • Crispier Crust: For an extra crispy crust, pre-bake the dough on a preheated pizza stone instead of a pan.
  • Flavor Boost: Brush the crust with garlic-infused olive oil before adding the toppings for an extra layer of savory flavor.

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F / 220°C.
  2. Coat a 12-inch / 30 cm pizza pan with nonstick cooking spray. Press the pizza dough into the prepared pan, building up the edge slightly.
  3. Brush the dough with olive oil and bake for 10 minutes.
  4. Carefully remove the partially baked crust from the oven. Evenly arrange the tomato slices, roasted peppers, and spinach (if using) over the top.
  5. Sprinkle with the shredded mozzarella cheese and a dash of coarsely ground black pepper.
  6. Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 5 to 10 minutes, or until the toppings are heated through and the cheese is gloriously bubbly and melted.
  7. Remove from the oven and let it rest for a minute before sprinkling with fresh snipped basil.
  8. Slice and serve immediately!
  9. Add More Veggies: Feel free to add other favorite toppings like sliced mushrooms, black olives, or red onion before the final bake.
