This simple cheese and veggie pizza gets an aromatic lift from a garlicky tomato sauce, smoked gouda cheese, and a sprinkling of everything bagel seasoning on the crispy crust.

Remove the dough from the refrigerator to bring to room temperature. Place an oven rack in the center of the oven; preheat to 475°F. Halve, peel, and thinly slice the onion. Wash and dry the pepper; cut off and discard the stem. Halve lengthwise; remove the ribs and seeds, then thinly slice crosswise. Peel and roughly chop 2 cloves of garlic. Tear the mozzarella into small pieces. Grate the gouda on the large side of a box grater.
In a medium pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the sliced onion and sliced pepper; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 6 to 7 minutes, or until lightly browned and softened. Turn off the heat. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired. Transfer to a plate.
In the same pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the chopped garlic; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until slightly softened. Add the tomato sauce (carefully, as the liquid may splatter); season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 4 to 5 minutes, or until slightly thickened. Turn off the heat. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired.
Lightly oil a sheet pan. Using your hands, gently stretch the dough to about 1/4-inch thickness. Carefully center the dough on the sheet pan. Shape towards the edges of the pan, maintaining an even thickness (if the dough is resistant, let rest 5 minutes). Leaving a 1-inch border around the edges, spread the sauce onto the prepared dough; season with salt and pepper. Evenly top with the cooked vegetables, mozzarella pieces, parmesan, and grated gouda; season with salt and pepper. Brush the edges of the pizza with olive oil, then sprinkle with the everything bagel seasoning.
Bake the pizza, rotating the sheet pan halfway through, 17 to 22 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the crust is golden brown. Remove from the oven and let stand at least 2 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board; cut into equal-sized pieces. Enjoy!
