Spinach Artichoke Pizza

Use any kind of dough you like. I use Amelia's recipe which is already on the blog.

This sauce recipe is for one medium size pizza.

Sauce:
1 Tbsp. Butter
2 Cloves of garlic minced
1 Tbsp. Flour
1/2 C Milk
1/4 C Half and Half
Pinches of Salt & Pepper
1 oz Cream Cheese
2 Tbsp Parmesan Cheese
Optional: Pinch of red pepper flakes

Toppings:
8 oz. Mozzarella Cheese
3 C Spinach, coarsely chopped and wilted
1 (6 oz) Jar marinate artichokes, drained and chopped*
1/4 C Shredded Parmesan Cheese

*I wilt my spinach in the microwave. Just add a little bit of water to a bowl with the spinach and cook for a minute or so. 


Make dough according to recipe's directions and set aside. Preheat oven to 450.

In medium saucepan add butter, garlic, and red pepper flakes (optional). Cook on medium-low and stir for about 1 minute. Whisk in flour and cook for another minute. Gradually whisk in milk, half and half, pepper, and salt. As sauce begins to thicken, turn up heat to medium and cook for 2-3 minutes. Whisk in the cream cheese and paremsan until melted. Remove from heat.

Roll out dough on preferred pizza pan. Using a fork, poke holes in the pizza dough to prevent big bubbles. Spread the warm sauce over the dough. Add half of the mozzarella cheese. Then add the spinach and artichokes. Then add the rest of the mozzarella. Cook in the oven for 7-10 minutes or until crust is starting to get golden brown. Remove from oven. Sprinkle with paremsan cheese. Cut and enjoy!
