Ingredients

1 package pizza dough or homemade dough

⅓ cup pizza sauce

1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese

1 large tomato, sliced

¼ cup pitted black olives, halved

¼ cup pitted kalamata olives, halved

½ cup sliced red onion

½ cup spinach leaves

½ cup feta cheese crumbles

1 teaspoon sea salt

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 525°F with a pizza stone or baking pan inside.
  2. Press tomato slices between paper towels to remove moisture.
  3. Prepare and shape the dough into a 12–14 inch circle on parchment paper, leaving edges raised.
  4. Spread pizza sauce evenly over the dough.
  5. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
  6. Top with tomato slices, black and kalamata olives, red onion, and spinach.
  7. Add crumbled feta cheese and sprinkle with sea salt. Drizzle olive oil on top.
  8. Optionally, brush crust with pizza sauce and sprinkle with dried herbs.
  9. Use a pizza peel to transfer the pizza to the preheated stone or pan.
  10. Bake for 12 minutes, or until cheese is melted and lightly browned.
  11. Remove from oven, let cool slightly, slice into 8 pieces, and serve.

Notes

  • Add grilled chicken or chickpeas for extra protein.
  • Use dairy-free cheese and skip feta for a vegan version.
  • Try whole wheat or cauliflower crust for a healthier option.
  • Add red pepper flakes or jalapeños for spice.
  • Finish with fresh basil or arugula after baking for added flavor.
