Artichoke-and-Red Pepper Pizza

This was very delicioussss... simple pizza but the vegetable mixture was really tasty and very filling.


Ingredients

  • 1 (10-ounce) can refrigerated pizza dough (I used my whole wheat pizza dough)
  • Vegetable cooking spray
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup julienne-cut red bell pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 5 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 (14-ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and coarsely chopped
  • 1 (2.5-ounce) jar sliced mushrooms, drained ( I used fresh mushrooms)
  • 1 1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
  • Cracked pepper (optional)
** I added black olives

Preparation

Unroll pizza dough onto a baking sheet coated with cooking spray; pat dough into a 14 x 10-inch rectangle. Bake at 425° for 5 minutes; set aside.

Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add red bell pepper, basil, oregano, and garlic; saute 5 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in artichokes and mushrooms.

Sprinkle half of cheese over prepared pizza crust, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Spread the vegetable mixture evenly over cheese, and top with remaining cheese. Sprinkle with cracked pepper, if desired. Bake at 425° for 10 minutes or until crust is lightly browned.
