Prepare the yeast mixture by combining warm water, flour, dry yeast, and sugar. Allow it to sit until frothy.

In a large bowl, combine 4 cups of flour and 2 tablespoons of Italian seasoning blend. Add the yeast mixture and mix until a dough forms. If needed, add a splash of water.

Knead the dough until smooth, then allow it to double in size.

Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C).

Prepare the pizza topping by draining and rinsing the tuna, then mixing it with diced tomatoes, tomato paste, diced onion, diced bell pepper, diced celery, oil, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, Italian seasoning, lime juice, and salt.

Roll out the dough on a floured surface and transfer it to a baking sheet or pizza stone.

Spread the tuna mixture evenly over the dough.

Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes or until desired color is achieved.

Prepare garlic butter sauce by melting butter and mixing it with garlic powder.

Spread the garlic butter sauce over the pizza immediately after removing it from the oven, then slice and serve.
