Method
 

Instructions
  1. Step 1: Preheat Your Oven - Start by preheating your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you're using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up as well.
  2. Step 2: Prepare the Pizza Dough - On a lightly floured surface, roll out your 16 ounces of fresh pizza dough to your desired thickness. Aim for about 12 inches in diameter. If the dough is resistant, let it rest for a few minutes before continuing to roll.
  3. Step 3: Prepare Your Toppings - In a mixing bowl, combine your chopped red onions and sliced baby portabello mushrooms. You can drizzle them with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper to enhance their flavor. Toss the ingredients until well coated.
  4. Step 4: Assemble the Pizza - Transfer the rolled-out dough to your preheated pizza stone or a lightly greased baking sheet. Sprinkle half of the grated mozzarella cheese over the crust. Next, layer on the sautéed mushrooms and onions, followed by the fresh baby spinach.
  5. Step 5: Add the Cheese - Crumble the goat cheese over the pizza, distributing it evenly. Finish by sprinkling the remaining mozzarella cheese on top.
  6. Step 6: Bake the Pizza - Place the pizza in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
  7. Step 7: Slice and Serve - Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven using oven mitts. Allow it to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Drizzle with a little more olive oil if desired, and season with additional salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot, and enjoy every bite of your Spinach Mushroom Red Onion Goat Cheese Pizza!

Notes

  • Feel free to experiment with different vegetables like bell peppers or artichokes.
  • For a little kick, add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes before serving.
  • Sautéing the spinach for a minute can enhance its flavor.
