1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 475°F (245°C).

7. Drizzle with Olive Oil: Lightly drizzle olive oil over the vegetables to enhance their flavor during baking.
8. Bake: Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
9. Cool and Slice: Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Then, slice it into pieces.
