Spinach Onion Mushroom Garlic and Provolone Pizza

Homemade pizza is really fantastic, and very easy to make. This recipe also uses provolone cheese, rather than mozzarella, which makes for a great pizza.

Ingredients

Chopped canned tomatoes Provolone cheese Spinach Onion Mushrooms

Garlic Olive oil Pizza dough (rustic bread recipe) Salt (to taste) Pepper (to taste)

Directions

Start by preheating your oven to 450-500 degrees, preferably with a pizza stone, for at least 20 minutes.

Next, prep your chopped tomatoes. Just season them with a bit of salt, pepper, and oregano, and it makes a great pizza sauce. Chopped tomatoes such as Pomi (or any canned tomato) work great.

Next, roll out your dough to the thickness that you’d like, and use a fork to poke holes in the middle of the pizza, where the sauce and toppings will sit.

When that’s done, brush a bit of olive oil over the crust and then add a layer of your chopped tomato sauce (as much or as little as you’d like). Follow that with bits of provolone, and the spinach, onion, mushroom, and garlic. It is also a good idea to lightly coat the vegetables in olive oil.

When your pizza is ready, pop it in the oven for 12-15 minutes (or 7-10 minutes for thinner crusts), or until the crust is golden, and the cheese has a nice color. The cooking time will vary based on the thickness of your crust, so it’s best to keep a close eye on it.
