Mediterranean Turkey & Bell Pepper Pizzas
with Hummus, Tzatziki, Fresh Dill & Lemon
- Sesame
- Milk
- Wheat
For this Greek spin on pizza, fresh dough is stretched into rustic ovals and spread with creamy hummus before being topped with seasoned ground turkey, bell pepper, and shallot. After the pizzas are baked until golden and crisp, they get a cooling drizzle of creamy Greek tzatziki, a spicy drizzle of hot sauce, and a sprinkling of fresh dill and bright lemon zest for extra Mediterranean flair.

Cooking Steps
-
Adjust rack to top position (top and middle positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 475 degrees. Wash and dry produce.
-
Remove each piece of dough from packaging and place on a plate. Drizzle both pieces with olive oil; shape each piece into a ball. TIP: Rub your hands with nonstick cooking spray or olive oil to prevent sticking.
-
Evenly sprinkle another drizzle of olive oil over dough balls. Cover with a clean kitchen towel; let rest at room temperature for 20 minutes.
-
While dough rests, core, deseed, and dice bell pepper into ½-inch pieces. Halve, peel, and thinly slice shallot. Roughly chop dill fronds and stems. Zest and quarter lemon.
-
Heat a large drizzle of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add bell pepper and shallot; cook, stirring occasionally, until beginning to soften, 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
-
Add turkey*, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until turkey is browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes.
-
Turn off heat. Add half the dill and juice from half the lemon; stir to combine.
-
Once dough has rested 20 minutes, line a baking sheet (two sheets for 4 servings) with parchment paper. Carefully press and stretch each dough ball into a rough oval shape and place on one side of prepared sheet (you’ll have two ovals per sheet). TIP: If needed, use a rolling pin to help roll out dough.
-
Cover dough with a clean kitchen towel; let rest 15 minutes more. TIP: This will make stretching the dough into a larger shape even easier!
-
Once dough has rested 15 minutes, using oiled hands, press and stretch dough on baking sheet into larger oval shapes, about 10 inches long and 5-6 inches wide.
-
Spread dough with hummus; sprinkle with mozzarella. Top with as much seasoned turkey and veggies as you like.
-
Drizzle or brush edges of dough with olive oil; season with salt and pepper.
-
Bake pizzas on top rack until crusts are golden brown and crisp, 14-18 minutes. (For 4 servings, bake on top and middle racks, swapping rack positions halfway through.)
-
Drizzle pizzas with tzatziki and hot sauce to taste. Garnish with lemon zest and remaining dill.
-
Slice pizzas as desired. Divide between plates and serve with remaining lemon wedges on the side.
