Method
 

Directions:
  1. Begin by making your pizza dough. If you're using store-bought, feel free to skip to the next step. For homemade dough, combine flour, yeast, water, and a pinch of salt in a mixing bowl. Knead until smooth, then let it rise for about an hour or until doubled in size.
  2. In a small bowl, mix together your pizza sauce ingredients. You can use crushed tomatoes, olive oil, garlic powder, and a touch of oregano for an easy no-cook sauce. Adjust the seasoning to taste.
  3. Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you’re using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up as well.
  4. While the oven is heating, wash and chop your zucchini, bell pepper, red onion, oyster mushrooms, and asparagus into bite-sized pieces.
  5. Dust your work surface with semolina flour. Roll out the pizza dough into your desired shape and thickness. Transfer it to a baking sheet or a preheated pizza stone.
  6. Spread your homemade pizza sauce evenly over the dough. Layer on the chopped vegetables, starting with the zucchini, followed by bell pepper, red onion, oyster mushrooms, and asparagus. Sprinkle Greek seasoning, salt, and pepper over the top for added flavor.
  7. Place the assembled pizza in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and crispy. Keep an eye on it to ensure it doesn’t overcook.
  8. Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy your flavorful cheeseless pizza!

Notes
