Three-Cheese White Pizza with Spinach image

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound Refrigerated fresh pizza dough
2 tablespoons Olive oil, divided
4 Garlic cloves, thinly sliced
6 cups Fresh baby spinach (6 oz)
1/2 cup Shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup Pecorino Romano cheese, grated
1 cup Part-skim Ricotta cheese
3 tablespoons 2% reduced fat milk
1 Garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon Cornmeal

Steps:

  • Remove the dough from the refrigerator and let stand at room temperature, covered, for 30 minutes.
  • Place pizza stone or heavy baking sheet in oven. Preheat oven to 500 degrees (keep stone or baking sheet in oven as it preheats).
  • Combine 1 1/2 T olive oil and sliced garlic in a large skillet. Heat over medium-high heat 1 1/2 minutes or until the garlic begins to sizzle. Add the spinach; saute 2 minutes or until spinach wilts. Set aside.
  • Combine cheeses, milk, and minced garlic in a bowl.
  • Roll the dough into a 14" circle on a lightly floured surface; pierce entire surface liberally with a fork. Carefully remove the pizza stone from the oven. Sprinkle cornmeal over the pizza stone and place the dough onto the stone. Spread cheese mixture over the dough, leaving a 1/2 inch border. Bake at 500 for 10 minutes or until crust is golden and cheese is lightly browned. Top with spinach; bake an additional 2 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Remove from oven; brush outer edge with remaining 1/2 T olive oil. Cut into 6 large slices.
