Vegetable Pizza

Vegetable Pizza:
1 package Jiffy pizza crust mix
1 pack sliced mushrooms
1 small bag spinach
1 can italian stewed tomatoes
parmesan cheese
mozzarella cheese
ricotta cheese
olive oil
italian seasoning
salt

Make crust according to package direction, but add 1 tsp italian seasoning before mixing in liquid

Drain tomatoes

Squeeze out liquid from ricotta by wrapping in a cheese cloth or clean dish towel and ringing out liquid. In a bowl mix drained ricotta with 1 tsp italian seasoning.

Steam spinach by placing in a microwave safe bowl with a few tbs of water and cooking in microwave for about 2-3 minutes until wilted. Drain spinach using the same cloth method as ricotta.

Drizzle crust with olive oil and sprinkle with italian seasoning. top with ricotta, then tomatoes, then mozzarella, then spinach, mushrooms, and a heavy sprinkle of parmesan. drizzle with more olive oil and another sprinkle of italian seasoning.  Cook 10-15 minutes until bubbly and browned.

Draining liquid from toppings helps keep the crust from getting soggy.
