Spinach and Feta Cheese Greek-za

By Michelle Jenkins Serves: 2
Cooking Time: 1 hour 19 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 ball of pizza dough (from a batch of Kenji's NY-Style dough)
  • 1 6 oz. bag baby spinach (per pizza)
  • 1 clove garlic, sliced
  • 2 t. olive oil
  • ~ 1/3 c. jarred marinara sauce (Trader Joe's Organic Marinara is our go-to)
  • 1/4 t. dried oregano (optional)
  • 1/2 c. grated dry mozzarella
  • 2x2 in. chunk of feta cheese, crumbled
  • AP flour for dusting your pizza peel

Instructions

1

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.

2

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.

3

In a small bowl, stir together the marinara sauce and oregano, if using.

4

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.

Baring It All, Down to the Turkey Meatballs

Here’s the deal. Meatballs are not pretty. They’re like most of us – dented on one side, browned but splotchy, hiding beneath a red sauce, and hoping everyone is distracted by the parmesan sprinkled over the top.  F that.  Today, we’re stripping it bare, because what do you have to hide? A meatball is a meatball, and done right, there’s no shame in it.  I’m not your nonna and this isn’t Sunday where we have all day to cook a gravy, so let’s make some Greek-inspired, Spinach and Feta Turkey Meatballs.

Be My (Pizza Spinaci) Valentine

  Every Rom-Com, every book, every platitude says when you meet “The One,” you’ll just know.  We didn’t lock eyes in a crowded airport terminal or pass each other on a train platform or have an awkward conversation about the weather in biology lab.  We met on the Internet.  And it’s like….magic. I have fallen completely, utterly and irrevocably in love. We are M-F-E-O (made for each other). My husband? What?  No, I met him in a bar.  I’m talking about the Baking Steel.

Quick & Easy Spinach and White Bean Burgers

  Anything shaped in a patty has a homey feel to it, doesn’t it? A hamburger, Salisbury steak, mashed potato cakes, they’re either home food, or diner fare. And for the most part, they’re fast.  Mix this and that together, form a disk and fry it up in a hot pan. But the thing is, you don’t have to limit your notion of a patty to meat. You can sit down to a delicious dinner in 20-25 minutes if you’ve got a can of beans (and a reasonably stocked pantry). This recipe germinated in my mind as a chicken meatball, but my pantry dictated. “Beans," it said. “It will be Great Northern beans.” It'll do that on a Wednesday when you don't have time to go the market. And so, Spinach and White Bean Burgers.
