Method

Sauce Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Ricotta Sauce

    In a medium bowl, combine ricotta cheese, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until smooth and creamy.

Toppings Preparation

  1. 2

    Sauté the Spinach

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and sauté minced garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add fresh spinach and cook until wilted, approximately 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

  2. 3

    Prepare the Toppings

    Chop fresh tomatoes and slice kalamata olives. Crumble the feta cheese into small pieces.

Assembly and Baking

  1. 4

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).

  2. 5

    Prepare Pizza Dough

    Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to fit a 12-inch pizza pan. Transfer the dough to the pan and stretch it to cover the base.

  3. 6

    Add Sauce and Toppings

    Spread the ricotta sauce evenly over the pizza dough. Top with the sautéed spinach, chopped tomatoes, kalamata olives, crumbled feta, and shredded mozzarella cheese.

  4. 7

    Bake the Pizza

    Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.

  5. 8

    Cool and Serve

    Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes. Slice and serve warm.
