Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place a pizza stone in the oven to heat for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine 1 1/2 T. olive oil and garlic in a small bowl.
Spread and shape pizza crust into a 12 to 13 inch round over a sheet of lightly floured parchment paper. Create a rim along the edge of the dough. Brush pizza dough evenly with olive oil mixture.
Evenly sprinkle with oregano, basil, thyme (leave the rim uncovered with herbs). Lightly season with salt and pepper. Evenly top with mozzarella and feta cheeses.
Bake 12-15 minutes or until crust is golden.
Meanwhile, saute bell peppers in a skillet in 1 T. olive oil over medium-high heat until tender. (They could also be added without sauteing, if preferred).
Remove pizza from oven.
Serve immediately topped with bell peppers, tomatoes, olives, onion and parsley.
4-5 servings.
