The toppings for this knife-and-fork pizza are so flavourful and tasty that you don't need much cheese.
Ingredients
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 1 onion, sliced
- 2 minced cloves of garlic
- 1/2 tsp dried basil
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp pepper
- 1/4 tsp hot pepper sauce
- 4 cups lightly packed shredded spinach, (1/2 a 10 oz/284 g pkg)
- 1-1/2 cups pasta sauce or pizza sauce
- 1 lb pizza dough
- 1 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
Preparation
In large nonstick skillet, cook beef over medium-high heat, breaking up with spoon, until no longer pink, 8 minutes. Drain off fat.
Add onion, garlic, basil, salt, pepper and hot pepper sauce; cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened, 5 minutes.
Add spinach and pizza sauce; stir until spinach wilts slightly, about 1 minute. Remove from heat.
On floured surface, roll out dough into 12-inch (30 cm) circle. Transfer to greased pizza pan. Spread beef mixture over dough right to edge. Sprinkle with mozzarella and feta cheeses. Bake in bottom third of 500°F (260°C) oven until crust is golden and cheese is bubbly, about 10 minutes.
