Ingredients

• 1 ball (about 12 inches in diameter) Pizza dough
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 cloves, minced Garlic
• 1 medium, diced Red bell pepper
• 1 medium, diced Yellow bell pepper
• 1 medium, sliced into thin rounds Zucchini
• 1 small, sliced Red onion
• 1.5 cups, halved Cherry tomatoes
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1.5 cups, shredded Mozzarella cheese
• 0.75 cup Tomato sauce
• 0.5 teaspoons Dried oregano
• 6 leaves, torn for garnish Fresh basil leaves

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

Place the diced red and yellow bell peppers, sliced zucchini, red onion, and cherry tomatoes onto a baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle with half of the salt and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.

Step 3

Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are tender and slightly charred.

Step 4

While the vegetables are roasting, lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the pizza dough to your desired thickness. Transfer the dough to a parchment-lined baking sheet or a pizza stone.

Step 5

In a small saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat and stir this garlic oil into the tomato sauce. Add the dried oregano and the remaining salt and black pepper to the sauce.

Step 6

Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges.

Step 7

Sprinkle half of the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.

Step 8

Remove the roasted vegetables from the oven and arrange them evenly over the cheese-topped pizza dough.

Step 9

Top the roasted vegetables with the remaining shredded mozzarella cheese.

Step 10

Bake the pizza in the hot oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden, and the crust is cooked through.

Step 11

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes.

Step 12

Garnish with torn fresh basil leaves before slicing and serving. Enjoy your roasted vegetable pizza!
