Ingredients

• 1 store-bought or homemade (12-inch) pizza dough
• 0.5 cup tomato sauce
• 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 24 slices vegetarian pepperoni
• 0.75 cup vegetarian sausage, crumbled
• 0.5 medium green bell pepper, sliced
• 0.25 medium red onion, sliced
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 0.5 tsp dried oregano
• 0.25 tsp garlic powder
• 0.25 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
• 5 optional, for garnish fresh basil leaves

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 475 degrees Fahrenheit (245 degrees Celsius). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to preheat as well.

Step 2

Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to about 12 inches in diameter. Transfer the dough to a parchment paper setup on a pizza peel or baking sheet for easy maneuvering.

Step 3

Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the crust, leaving a small border for the crust.

Step 4

Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.

Step 5

Top the cheese with vegetarian pepperoni slices and crumbled vegetarian sausage.

Step 6

Add sliced green bell pepper and red onion evenly over the pizza.

Step 7

Drizzle a tablespoon of olive oil over the toppings to enhance flavor and help with the cooking process.

Step 8

Sprinkle dried oregano, garlic powder, and crushed red pepper flakes evenly on top.

Step 9

Carefully transfer the pizza to the preheated oven (or onto the pizza stone) and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.

Step 10

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired.

Step 11

Slice the pizza into 8 wedges using a pizza cutter and serve warm.
