Scale

Let’s gather up what you’ll need to create this delightful dish. Remember, flexibility is key, just like those nights with my dad, creating magic with whatever was on hand.

  • 1 prepared pizza crust (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup fresh spinach leaves
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano

Instructions

Ready to get cooking? Here’s how to bring this delicious Greek Spinach and White Pizza to life. Each step is like a page out of a storybook, where your kitchen becomes a lively character in its own right.

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). If you’re using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat as well.
  2. In a small skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
  3. In a bowl, mix together the ricotta, Parmesan, and sautéed garlic. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Roll out your prepared pizza crust on a lightly floured surface. Transfer it to a baking sheet or a preheated pizza stone.
  5. Spread the ricotta mixture evenly over the crust, leaving a small border for the crust.
  6. Top with fresh spinach leaves, then sprinkle with mozzarella and feta cheeses.
  7. Sprinkle the oregano and optional red pepper flakes over the top.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
  9. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.
  10. Share, enjoy, and watch your family light up with each bite!

And there you have it! A slice of deliciousness that’s as much about the journey as it is about the destination. Remember, cooking at home is about those little moments of joy, not just the results.
