Pizza with mozzarella, bell pepper, and tomato sauce
Description
Homemade baked goods for tea. Preheat the oven to 170 degrees. Prepare tomato sauce. Heat olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, cook, stirring, until onion and garlic turn brown, about 4 minutes. Add oregano, basil, crushed red pepper, bay leaf, diced tomatoes, and tomato paste. Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until liquid evaporates and sauce thickens, about 35 minutes. Arrange pita bread on two baking sheets. Spread about 6 tablespoons of tomato sauce on each pita. Top with sweet peppers and sprinkle with cheese. Bake pizza for about 20 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board. Sprinkle with basil and cut into 12 slices. Serve pizza warm or at room temperature.
