Ingredients
Pizza Dough: 1 pound – Homemade or store-bought, it forms the base of your pizza canvas.
Alfredo Sauce: 1/2 cup – Creamy, garlicky, and luxurious, it replaces traditional tomato sauce.
Mozzarella Cheese: 1 cup shredded – Melts into stringy, gooey perfection.
Parmesan Cheese: 1/4 cup grated – Adds nutty, salty depth to the cheese blend.
Zucchini: 1 small, thinly sliced – Light and slightly sweet, adds a tender bite.
Red Bell Pepper: 1/2, sliced into thin strips – Sweet and slightly smoky when roasted.
Cherry Tomatoes: 1/2 cup, halved – Juicy bursts of brightness.
Red Onion: 1/4, thinly sliced – Adds a pop of color and subtle sharpness.
Olive Oil: 1 tablespoon – For tossing veggies and brushing crust.
Salt and Black Pepper: To taste – Brings everything into flavorful harmony.
Italian Seasoning: 1 teaspoon – A fragrant blend of herbs to round out the flavor.
Instructions
Preheat Your Equipment: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven during preheat.
Combine Ingredients: Toss zucchini, bell pepper, red onion, and cherry tomatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning in a bowl.
Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: If using a baking sheet, lightly oil or line with parchment. If using a pizza stone, dust a pizza peel or board with flour or cornmeal.
Assemble the Dish: Roll out pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. Spread Alfredo sauce evenly, leaving a border. Sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan cheese, then arrange the seasoned veggies on top.
Cook to Perfection: Transfer pizza to the hot stone or baking sheet. Bake for 12–15 minutes, until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.
Finishing Touches: Remove from oven, brush crust with olive oil or garlic butter, and let rest 2–3 minutes.
Serve and Enjoy: Slice into wedges, serve warm, and enjoy every creamy, veggie-packed bite.
Notes
Pre-cook moisture-rich vegetables like zucchini to avoid a soggy crust.
Don’t overload with toppings — balance is key.
Brush crust with olive oil or garlic butter for extra flavor.
