2. Shape the dough: Place the Pizza dough on a parchment paper sheet and starting from the center, gently press it out with your fingers until you get approx. a 9×13 inch pizza. Then gently place the dough and the parchment paper onto a pizza peel or onto the back of a rimmed baking sheet.
3. Add the topping: top the dough evenly with Nutoras mozzarella cheese, tomatoes, onion wedges, olives, and crumbled Nutoras feta. Finish with oregano and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
4. Bake the pizza: use the pizza peel to carefully transfer the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone . Bake the pizza until the cheese and crust are nicely browned. Each oven is different, keep an eye on it (e.g. in a forced fan oven it will take about 8-10min)
5. Serve: allow the pizza to cool for a min or two.
