Ingredients

  • 1 refrigerated pizza crust (recommended: Pillsbury brand)
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 egg
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 cups grape tomatoes
  • ½ medium red onion thinly sliced
  • 1 small green bell pepper thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 ounces baby spinach

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Unroll the pizza crust onto a greased baking sheet.
    1 refrigerated pizza crust
  • In a small bowl, mix together the ricotta and egg with the salt and pepper. Spread the ricotta mixture over the pizza crust.
    1 cup ricotta cheese, 1 egg, ¼ teaspoon salt, ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
  • Place the prepared veggies on a second baking sheet. Drizzle the veggies with the olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Using your hands or kitchen tongs, toss the veggies and olive oil so that everything is evenly coated.
    2 cups grape tomatoes, ½ medium red onion, 1 small green bell pepper, 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Place both baking sheets into the preheated oven and cook for about 15 minutes or until the tomatoes start to burst open and slump a bit. Remove the veggies when that happens, but leave the crust in a bit longer if needed for good browning.
  • When well browned, remove the crust from the oven and immediately top with the fresh baby spinach. Add the roasted veggies on top of the spinach. Serve immediately.
    3 ounces baby spinach

Notes

  • The vegetables can be changed according to your family's preferences. Substitute red instead of green bell peppers, or use Cubanelle (a favorite of ours). Thinly sliced zucchini is a good choice as well.
  • Other toppings could be added as well. Black olives, Parmesan cheese, and red pepper flakes are all good choices.
