Sausage and Spinach Pizza

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

2. 2

   Brown, crumble and drain fat from sausage, if you havent already.

3. 3

   Stir together olive oil, Parmesan and garlic until well blended.

4. 4

   Brush a thin layer on each pizza crustyou may have some olive oil left over, which is fine.

5. 5

   You can use prepared crusts or make your own (like PWs pizza dough recipe from her book).

6. 6

   After the olive oil mixture is on, par-bake crusts for 4-5 minutes.

7. 7

   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.

8. 8

   Pull the crusts out of the oven and turn the heat down to 425 degrees.

9. 9

   Spread half of the pre-made pizza sauce on each crust.

10. 10

    Top sauce with as much spinach as youd like.

11. 11

    Place slices of mozzarella evenly around the crusts on top of the spinach.

12. 12

    Spread sausage, as desired, on top of the cheese slices.

13. 13

    Finish by sprinkling each pie with a little bit of kosher salt, to taste.

14. 14

    You can also toss on a little shredded parmesan, if you want.

15. 15

    Of course, you can vary or add ingredients as you like, I just found this combination to be really tasty.

16. 16

    Bake the completed pizzas for 10 to 12 minutes on baking sheets until cheese is fully melted, but not brown.

17. 17

    Allow to rest for a minute or so before cutting.
