Ingredients
  

Pizza Dough
  • 1 pre-made pizza dough 12–14 inch
White Sauce
  • 1 head roasted garlic or 6–8 cloves
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 lemon zest + 1 tbsp juice
  • 1 tbsp olive oil for sauce
Toppings
  • 2 cups fresh spinach sautéed
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella
  • 0.5 cup crumbled feta
  • 0.25 cup red onion thinly sliced, optional
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley chopped
  • 1 tbsp fresh basil optional
  • 1 tbsp olive oil for brushing crust

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Baking sheet
  • Pizza stone
  • Skillet

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while preheating.
  2. Roast garlic if not pre-roasted: cut top off garlic head, drizzle with olive oil, wrap in foil, roast 30–35 minutes until soft.
  3. Mash roasted garlic into a paste. Mix with ricotta, lemon zest, lemon juice, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper.
  4. Sauté spinach in olive oil for 2–3 minutes until wilted. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Stretch pizza dough into a 12–14 inch circle and transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  6. Spread the roasted garlic ricotta mixture over the dough, leaving a small border.
  7. Add spinach, mozzarella, feta, and red onion (optional). Sprinkle red pepper flakes if desired.
  8. Bake 10–12 minutes until crust is golden and cheese is melted.
  9. Remove from oven, drizzle with olive oil, garnish with parsley and basil, slice, and serve.

Notes

For a crispier crust, bake on a preheated pizza stone. Add kalamata olives or artichoke hearts for extra Greek flavor.
