Pizza Preparation

Sauce the Pizza
Spread 1 cup of pizza sauce evenly over the stretched dough, leaving a border around the edges.

Add Cheese
Sprinkle 2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, ensuring even coverage.

Add Topping
Add your chosen topping (e.g., pepperoni, mushrooms, bell peppers) evenly across the cheese. You can use about 1 cup of your selected topping.

Drizzle 1 tbs of olive oil over the top of the pizza. Season with 0.5 tsp of salt, 0.5 tsp of black pepper, and 1 tsp of dried oregano.
