Ingredients

• 1 pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 cup pizza sauce (tomato-based or homemade)
• 2 medium tomatoes, sliced
• 1/2 cup sliced salami (choose your preferred type)
• 1/2 cup mushrooms, sliced (button mushrooms or any variety you prefer)
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 tablespoon dried oregano
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh basil or parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you're using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat as well.
2. Roll out your pizza dough on a floured surface until it's the desired thickness. Transfer the dough to a baking sheet or pizza stone.
3. Brush the dough lightly with olive oil, then spread an even layer of pizza sauce over the surface, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.
4. Arrange the sliced tomatoes, salami, and mushrooms evenly over the sauce.
5. Top the pizza with shredded mozzarella cheese and a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese for extra flavor.
6. Season with dried oregano, salt, and pepper to taste.
7. Bake the pizza for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown, and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
8. Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a minute before slicing. Optionally, garnish with fresh basil or parsley to add a touch of color and flavor.
