Ingredients

• 1 12-inch crust whole wheat pizza dough
• 0.5 cup tomato sauce
• 100 grams lean ham
• 150 grams fresh mushrooms
• 1 cup low-fat mozzarella cheese
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 clove minced garlic
• 5 leaves fresh basil leaves

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).

Step 2

Roll out the whole wheat pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to form a 12-inch pizza crust.

Step 3

Place the rolled-out dough on a nonstick pizza pan or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix the tomato sauce with the minced garlic and dried oregano. Spread this mixture evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a half-inch border around the edges.

Step 5

Slice the lean ham into thin strips and distribute them evenly over the tomato sauce.

Step 6

Clean and slice the mushrooms thinly, then spread them evenly over the ham.

Step 7

Sprinkle the low-fat mozzarella cheese evenly over the top of the mushrooms.

Step 8

Drizzle the olive oil over the pizza to enhance the flavors and promote browning.

Step 9

Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust is golden brown.

Step 10

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes.

Step 11

Garnish with fresh basil leaves before slicing and serving.
