Mushroom, Spinach, and Goat Cheese Pizza
Vegetarian and yet completely satisfying is
a great description of this dish. There is something about the heartiness of
the mushrooms, nutrition of the spinach, and creaminess of the goat cheese that
makes me love this!
Ingredients:
·
Refrigerated pizza dough
Oyster Mushrooms |
·
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
·
8 ounces fresh baby bella mushrooms, stemmed, thinly sliced
Baby Bella Mushrooms |
·
4 ounces fresh oyster mushrooms, thinly sliced
·
1/4 cup dry white wine
·
2 cups (packed) ready-to-use spinach leaves
·
6 ounces chilled soft fresh goat cheese, coarsely crumbled
·
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Directions:
Preheat oven to the desired temperature on the pizza dough package
(about 400 degrees.) (note: you can find
this in whole wheat in your grocery store.)
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large skillet over medium-high heat add baby
bella and oyster mushrooms; sprinkle with salt. Sauté about 2 minutes, then add
wine and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. (set these on counter until ready,
or place in fridge over night.)
Roll out Dough onto pizza stone.
Prebake about 8 minutes, depending on how crunchy you like your crust.
Using the same skillet as you used for the mushrooms, add 1
tablespoon oil. Add spinach and toss
until wilted. Set aside.
Remove partially baked pizza dough (majority cooked through.) Layer ingredients: Mushrooms, then spinach. Pinch goat cheese pieces throughout
pizza. Top with shredded mozzarella.
Bake about 8 minutes until crust is brown at edges and on bottom and
cheese is melted.
Slice and serve.
(It paired exceptionally well with my Shrimp Bisque Recipe!)
