Ingredients

• 1 ball (enough for a 12-inch pizza) Pizza dough
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 cloves, minced Garlic
• 4 cups Fresh spinach
• 1 cup, thinly sliced Cremini mushrooms
• 1.5 cups, shredded Mozzarella cheese
• 0.25 cup, grated Parmesan cheese
• 0.5 cup Tomato sauce
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon, for dusting Cornmeal

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat up.

Step 2

Dust your work surface lightly with flour and roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until wilted. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sauté the sliced mushrooms for 4-5 minutes until they’ve released their moisture and browned slightly. Remove from heat.

Step 6

Sprinkle the pizza stone or baking sheet with cornmeal to prevent sticking. Carefully transfer the rolled-out pizza dough onto the prepared surface.

Step 7

Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.

Step 8

Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.

Step 9

Top the pizza with the sautéed spinach and mushrooms, spreading them out evenly.

Step 10

Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese on top and season with dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.

Step 11

Transfer the pizza to the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.

Step 12

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes before slicing and serving.
