The Phytopia Cookbook, by Barbara
Gollman, RD and Kim Pierce, Phytopia, Inc, Dallas, TX. This beautiful
pizza is a feast for the eyes and a joy
to eat! You will need a knife and fork to eat this as the yummy crust
is a bit crumbly under the weight of all these power-packed ingredients.
- Olive oil cooking spray
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 large onion finely
chopped
- 3 (10 ounce) packages
frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh
basil
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh
parsley
- 1 Tbsp. dried dillweed
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 teaspoons fresh lemon
- 8 sheets thawed phyllo
dough (look for the whole wheat brand)
- 3 ounces feta cheese,
crumbled
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
or horseradish mustard
- 3 ounces low-fat mozzarella
cheese (I use soy mozzarella)
- 4 medium tomatoes, sliced
Pre-prep:
Thaw spinach and squeeze
dry. Bring phyllo
to room temperature. Mince
garlic; chop onion,
basil, parsley. Juice
lemon. Slice tomatoes
Directions:
- Spray large skillet
with cooking spray; sauté garlic and onions over medium heat for 5
minutes. Add spinach
and sauté until all moisture has evaporated.
- Remove from heat and
add basil, parsley, dill, nutmeg and lemon juice
- Mix well and set aside
to cool.
- Preheat oven to 400
F.
- Coat a 12 x 16 inch
baking or pizza pan with cooking spray. Layer
with phyllo sheets to cover pan, lightly spraying after each sheet
with cooking spray.
- Finish by spraying the
top of the final sheet and roll edges under.
- Bake 4-5 minutes; allow
to cool.
- Mix feta cheese into
spinach mixture.
- After crust has cooled,
carefully brush with a thin coat of mustard (Don't worry if some flakes
off; this won't show.)
- Carefully spread spinach
mixture on top. Add
half the mozzarella.
- Arrange tomatoes side
by side on top of spinach and cheese.
- Sprinkle with remaining
mozzarella.
Bake 20-25 minutes until
cheese is melted and crust is golden. Serves 4-6. Serve with a fresh
green salad and fresh fruit. Yum, yum. Beats store bought or delivery
pizzas hands down.
