Suggested Recipes
-
1 tbsp (15 mL) vegetable oil
1 pkg (8 oz/227 g) sliced fresh mushrooms
1 onion, chopped
1-1/2 tsp (7 mL) bottled minced garlic (or 2 cloves, minced)
1 tsp (5 mL) dried oregano
1/4 tsp (1 mL) each salt and pepper
1 pkg (300 g) frozen chopped spinach, thawed
3/4 cup (175 mL) pizza or pasta sauce
1 pkg (125 g) sliced provolone cheese
Pizza Dough:
1/2 cup (125 mL) water
1-1/2 tsp (7 mL) extra-virgin olive oil or vegetable oil
1/2 tsp (2 mL) salt
1-1/2 cups (375 mL) all-purpose flour
1 tsp (5 mL) quick-rising (instant) dry yeast
Preparation:
Pizza Dough: Into pan of bread machine, add (in order) water, oil, salt, flour and yeast. (Do not let yeast touch liquid.) Choose dough setting.
Turn out dough onto lightly floured surface; shape into disc. Roll out into 12-inch (30 cm) circle, letting rest if too elastic to roll. Lightly grease 12-inch (30 cm) pizza pan; centre dough on pan. Let rise for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, in large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat; sauté mushrooms, onion, garlic, oregano, salt and pepper until mushrooms are golden, about 10 minutes. Squeeze spinach dry; add to skillet and stir to combine.
Spread pizza sauce over pizza dough. Top with mushroom mixture. Cut each provolone slice in half; arrange over top. Bake on bottom rack of 500°F (260°C) oven until cheese is bubbly and crust is golden and slightly puffed, about 10 minutes.
