I used a mix of packaged sturdy greens and baby broccoli for this substantial pizza, but you could also use rapini.

Time 30m

Yield Serves two

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 pound sturdy greens (kale or collards, or a mix)
1/4 pound baby broccoli tops
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/4 pound mushrooms, sliced
2 large garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary (optional)
Salt
freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup, tightly packed (2 ounces) grated Gruyère or fontina cheese
1 9-by-12-inch lavash

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Add the greens and the broccoli tops. Blanch for three minutes, then transfer to a bowl of ice water and drain. Squeeze out excess water and chop. Set aside.
  • Heat the oven to 375 degrees, preferably with a pizza stone in it. Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium-high heat in a large, heavy nonstick pan. When the oil is hot, add the mushrooms. Cook, stirring or shaking often in the pan, for two minutes until they begin to soften. Add the garlic and rosemary, and salt and pepper to taste. Cook, stirring, for another 30 seconds to a minute until fragrant. Add the greens, stir together for a minute and remove from the heat. Season the mixture to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Place the lavash on a baking sheet, and sprinkle on the cheese in an even layer. Top with the greens. Drizzle on the remaining olive oil, and place the pizza in the oven. Bake 10 to 15 minutes, or until the edges of the lavash are crisp and browned. Remove from the heat, cut in half or into squares and serve.
