Sausage and Spinach Pizza
- 2 whole Pizza Shells, Pre-baked
- 1 pound Italian Sausage, cooked and crumbled
- 2- 1/2 Tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 Tablespoon Grated Parmesan Cheese
- 1 clove Garlic, Minced
- 1 jar (small 15 Oz. Jar) Tomato Basil Sauce (I Use A Small Jar Of Bertolli, You Can Use Per Your Taste)
- 1 bag (6 Oz. Bag) Petite Spinach, Pre-washed
- 1 package (8 Oz. Package) Fresh Mozzarella Cheese, Sliced Thin
- 2 pinches Kosher Salt
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
- Brown, crumble and drain fat from sausage, if you havent already.
- Stir together olive oil, Parmesan and garlic until well blended.
- Brush a thin layer on each pizza crustyou may have some olive oil left over, which is fine.
- You can use prepared crusts or make your own (like PWs pizza dough recipe from her book).
- After the olive oil mixture is on, par-bake crusts for 4-5 minutes.
- If youre making your own dough, youll need to bake it a while longer, so the crust is able to stand up to the toppings.
- Pull the crusts out of the oven and turn the heat down to 425 degrees.
- Spread half of the pre-made pizza sauce on each crust.
- Top sauce with as much spinach as youd like.
- Place slices of mozzarella evenly around the crusts on top of the spinach.
- Spread sausage, as desired, on top of the cheese slices.
- Finish by sprinkling each pie with a little bit of kosher salt, to taste.
- You can also toss on a little shredded parmesan, if you want.
- Of course, you can vary or add ingredients as you like, I just found this combination to be really tasty.
- Bake the completed pizzas for 10 to 12 minutes on baking sheets until cheese is fully melted, but not brown.
- Allow to rest for a minute or so before cutting.
