Follow The Directions

01

Step
0 mins

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to preheat for at least 30 minutes. (30 minutes)

02

Step
12 mins

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic; cook, stirring frequently, until softened and fragrant. (5 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

Add the squeezed spinach to the skillet and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until any remaining moisture has evaporated. (5-7 minutes)

04

Step
2 mins

Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the chopped basil, lemon juice, dried oregano, and season generously with freshly ground black pepper. Allow the mixture to cool slightly. (2 minutes)

05

Step
15 mins

Unroll the pizza dough onto the preheated pizza stone or a large baking sheet. Brush the crust with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, ensuring an even coating. (2 minutes)

06

Step

Spread the spinach mixture evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border (about 1 inch) around the edge for the crust. (3 minutes)

07

Step

Sprinkle 1 cup of the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the spinach mixture. (1 minute)

08

Step

Gently press the tomato slices into the seasoned bread crumbs, coating them on both sides. Arrange the breaded tomato slices artfully over the pizza. (5 minutes)

09

Step

Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of mozzarella cheese and the crumbled feta cheese evenly over the tomatoes and the rest of the pizza. (2 minutes)

10

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until the pizza crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly browned. (15 minutes)

For a richer flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of Kalamata olives or sun-dried tomatoes to the pizza.
If you don't have a pizza stone, a baking sheet works just fine. Just be sure to preheat it for best results.
Squeezing the spinach completely dry is crucial for preventing a soggy pizza. Use your hands or a clean kitchen towel to remove as much moisture as possible.
Freshly grated mozzarella will melt better than pre-shredded.
Adjust the amount of feta cheese to your liking. Some people prefer a more pronounced feta flavor.
The seasoned breadcrumbs can be made with panko breadcrumbs, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and parmesan cheese.
