1

Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat up.

2

Prepare the Dough

If you're using store-bought dough, skip to the next step. Otherwise, follow your favorite pizza dough recipe and let the dough rise until it doubles in size. Once ready, gently punch down the dough and divide it into portions.

3

Sauce it Up

Spread a generous amount of tomato sauce or your favorite marinara sauce onto the rolled-out pizza dough. You can also add a sprinkle of dried oregano for an extra burst of flavor.

4

Top it Off

Now it's time to add the Mediterranean flair! Start by layering on some sliced black olives, sun-dried tomatoes, and crumbled feta cheese. Then, top it off with thinly sliced red onions, artichoke hearts, and fresh chopped basil.

5

Bake to Perfection

Carefully transfer your loaded pizza onto the hot pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven. Bake for approximately 10-15 minutes or until the crust turns golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.

6

Enjoy the Mediterranean Delight

Once the pizza is out of the oven, let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. Grab a slice, close your eyes, and imagine yourself lounging by the crystal-clear waters of the Mediterranean. Buon appetito!
