Step-by-Step Instructions for Greek Roasted Garlic Spinach White Pizza
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the top off a medium head of garlic, drizzle with olive oil, and wrap in foil. Roast for about 30-35 minutes until golden and soft.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add 1 cup of chopped spinach, sauté for 2-3 minutes until wilted. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. After roasting, let the garlic cool slightly, squeeze the cloves into a bowl, mash, and mix with ricotta, half the mozzarella, oregano, and seasonings.
  4. Spread the garlic-ricotta mixture over the pre-made pizza crust. Layer sautéed spinach, remaining mozzarella, and crumbled feta cheese on top.
  5. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the crust is golden and cheese is bubbly. Monitor closely to avoid burning.
  6. Let the pizza cool for a few minutes, garnish with fresh basil if desired, slice, and serve warm.
