Ingredients
- 1 refrigerated pizza crust (recommended: Pillsbury brand)
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1 egg
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cups grape tomatoes
- ½ medium red onion thinly sliced
- 1 small green bell pepper thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 ounces baby spinach
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix together the ricotta, egg, salt and pepper. Stir until well combined. Spread the ricotta mixture onto the pizza crust which has been placed on a greased baking sheet.
- Place the tomatoes, onion, and bell pepper on a second baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle lightly with salt. Toss with hands so that all veggies are coated with olive oil. Place both baking sheets in a 350 preheated oven. Bake 15 minutes or until the tomatoes have begun to burst open and soften. Remove from oven but leave the crust in for 5 or more additional minutes if needed to achieve desired degree of browning.
- Top the crust with the baby spinach and roasted veggie mixture. Serve immediately.

Notes
- The vegetables can be changed according to your family's preferences. Substitute red instead of green bell peppers, or use Cubanelle (a favorite of ours). Thinly sliced zucchini is a good choice as well.
- Other toppings could be added as well. Black olives, Parmesan cheese, and red pepper flakes are all good choices.
