Method
Sauce Preparation
Add Tomatoes and Seasonings
Stir in the crushed tomatoes, oregano, basil, salt, black pepper, and sugar. Bring the sauce to a simmer and let cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Vegetable Medley Preparation
Sauté Vegetables
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced bell peppers, onion, mushrooms, and broccoli florets. Season with salt and pepper. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
Pizza Assembly
Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).
Roll Out Dough
On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough to your desired thickness and shape. Transfer the rolled dough to a pizza stone or baking sheet.
Add Sauce and Toppings
Spread the prepared red sauce evenly over the pizza dough. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top, followed by the sautéed vegetable medley. Finish with a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese.
Bake the Pizza
Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
Serve
Remove the pizza from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, slice, and serve hot.
