Superbowl Sunday is one of the biggest days of the year for pizza consumption. And it's probably the longest you'll ever wait for pizza to be delivered. Why not take pity on your pizza guy and make your own?Grab some dough while you're out stocking up on snacks today and have a go at this Spinach and Feta Cheese Greek-za. #GoHawks

Take your dough out of the fridge and let it sit on the counter for 1 hour before baking. At the same time, preheat Baking Steel at 500F.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil and garlic. Cook the garlic for 1 minute to flavor the oil, add spinach and cook for 2-3 minutes until wilted. Squeeze the water out of the spinach in a tea towel and set aside. You don't have to go crazy and squeeze the life out of it, you just want to get rid of most of the liquid.
In a small bowl, stir together the marinara sauce and oregano, if using.
When ready to put your pizza together, turn the oven up to 525F. On a pizza peel lightly dusted with flour, stretch the dough into an ~ 10 inch circle and spread on the sauce, leaving about a 1 inch border. Add the mozzarella cheese and bake for 6-7 minutes until the cheese is just beginning to brown. Remove from the oven, add the spinach and feta and cook for ~ 2 minutes more.
You know who really needs Spring Break? Adults. Teacher friends, you were smart to get into education. It’s a job I know I could never do, let’s face it, unless I taught 1st or 2nd grade, all the kids would be taller than me. But more than that, you get breaks!
We’re just back from some time in Hawaii for the annual escape to sunshine, hence the radio silence around here. The one thing we didn’t have for the duration of our trip was pizza. Hanalei Pizza Company is gone, about to be replaced by a Puka Dog. So, for the first time in ages, we went 10 days without even a slice of pizza. Since we had nothing else in the house, pizza was our first meal back.
And whaddya know, my first post back is a Friday Night Slice. Today’s slice is a vegetarian Kale, Calabrian Chile & Mozzarella pie with thinly shaved garlic.
