<br>
<br>Ingredients: 
<br>1 package Pillsbury Classic Pizza Crust refrigerated dough 
<br>1 cup chopped onion 
<br>1 cup chopped green bell pepper 
<br>1 cup chopped mushrooms 
<br>One 14.5-oz. can (about 1 1/2 cups) crushed tomatoes 
<br>1/4 tsp. Italian seasoning 
<br>1/4 tsp. garlic powder 
<br>One 10-oz. package frozen chopped spinach, thawed, excess liquid removed (see HG Tip) 
<br>1 1/2 cups light/low-fat ricotta cheese 
<br>1/4 cup egg whites or fat-free liquid egg substitute 
<br>1 tsp. chopped garlic 
<br>1/4 tsp. salt 
<br>1 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese 
<br>1/3 cup sliced black olives 
<br>
<br>Directions: 
<br>Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a 9" X 13" glass baking pan with nonstick spray. 
<br>
<br>Place dough in the pan, and stretch into a large rectangle of even thickness, covering the bottom of the pan. Pierce several times with a fork. 
<br>
<br>Bring a large skillet sprayed with nonstick spray to medium-high heat. Add onion, bell pepper, and mushrooms. Cook and stir until slightly softened and lightly browned, about 4 minutes. 
<br>
<br>Transfer veggies to medium-large bowl, and blot dry. Add crushed tomatoes, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder. Mix well. 
<br>
<br>In a large bowl, combine spinach, ricotta cheese, egg whites/substitute, chopped garlic, and salt. Mix until uniform. 
<br>
<br>Evenly distribute half of the spinach-ricotta mixture onto the dough, smoothing the surface with the back of a spoon. Top with half of the veggie-tomato mixture. 
<br>
<br>Repeat layering with remaining spinach-ricotta mixture and veggie-tomato mixture. Top with mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle with olives. 
<br>
<br>Bake until cheese has melted and crust is golden brown, about 30 minutes.

<br>HG Tip! To quickly thaw and thoroughly dry your spinach, start by microwaving it in a microwave-safe bowl for 5 minutes, or until thawed. Then place spinach between two plates (both bottom-side down), and squeeze plates together to remove excess liquid, draining the liquid into the bowl. Thoroughly pat dry with paper towels.
