Ingredients
  

1 pre-made pizza crust (store-bought or homemade)

1 cup artichoke hearts (canned or frozen, drained and chopped)

1 cup marinara sauce

1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese

½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon dried oregano

½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional for spice)

Fresh basil leaves for garnish

Olive oil for drizzling

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you're using a pizza stone, make sure to place it in the oven to heat as well.

    Prepare the Pizza Base: Roll out the pre-made pizza crust on a floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer it to a pizza stone or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

      Spread the Sauce: Evenly spread the marinara sauce over the pizza crust, leaving about ½ inch around the edges for the crust.

        Add the Artichokes: Scatter the chopped artichoke hearts over the sauce, ensuring they are evenly distributed.

          Cheese It Up: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella evenly over the artichokes, followed by the grated Parmesan cheese for a rich, cheesy flavor.

            Season for Flavor: Sprinkle the garlic powder, dried oregano, and optional red pepper flakes over the top for an extra kick of flavor.

              Drizzle with Olive Oil: Lightly drizzle a little olive oil over the top before placing it in the oven—this will help the cheese melt beautifully.

                Bake the Pizza: Place the pizza in the oven (or on the hot pizza stone) and bake for about 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling and slightly browning.

                  Garnish: Once out of the oven, let it cool for a minute. Top with fresh basil leaves and more olive oil drizzle if desired for added freshness.

                    Slice and Serve: Slice the pizza into wedges and serve hot. Enjoy your quick homemade artichoke pizza!
