Greek Goddess Pizza Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). If using a pizza stone, place in oven to preheat.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet; cook and stir onion and garlic until tender, about 5 minutes. Add spinach and continue to cook and stir until all liquid has evaporated, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat and season with basil, lemon juice, oregano, and pepper. Allow mixture to cool slightly.
• Unroll pizza dough on preheated pizza stone or a large baking sheet and brush with remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Spread spinach mixture over dough, leaving a small border at the edge of the pizza crust. Top with 1 cup mozzarella cheese.
• Press tomato slices into seasoned bread crumbs until coated; arrange tomatoes over pizza. Spread remaining 1 cup mozzarella cheese and feta cheese over tomatoes.
• Bake in preheated oven until pizza crust is golden brown and cheese is melted, about 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Pulse garlic and shallot in food processor until chopped. With the food processor running, add lemon juice, parsley, kale, basil and chives.
• Very slowly drizzle in olive oil until kale and herbs get sufficiently chopped and everything is the consistency of a pesto. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Preheat oven to 450 F and grease a baking sheet.
• In a bowl, massage the kale with a bit of olive oil, salt and pepper until well-coated, set aside.
• On a floured surface, roll out the dough to form a 12-inch circle. Transfer the dough to the baking sheet and cover it with the pesto. Top with mozzarella rounds.
• Add the shaved zucchini ribbons and massaged kale, then sprinkle with half of the parmesan.
• Drizzle pizza lightly with olive oil, salt and pepper.
• Bake for 10-13 minutes or until crust is golden and cheese has melted.
• Remove from oven and top with the fresh basil, chives, avocado and the rest of the parmesan.

Steps:

• For the crust: Place an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Dust a heavy baking sheet with cornmeal. Set aside.
• On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the dough into a 1/4-inch thick rectangle about 16 inches long and 8 inches wide. Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet.
• For the topping: In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the leeks and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds until aromatic. In batches, add the spinach and cook until wilted, about 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and add the feta cheese and mint. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Using the tines of a fork, prick the surface of the dough all over. Spread the spinach mixture on top and dot with butter.
• Bake until the dough is golden and crunchy, 15 to 18 minutes. Cut into squares and serve.

Steps:

• Place dill, mint, parsley, basil, garlic, scallions, lemon juice and salt in a food processor and process until finely chopped.
• With motor running, drizzle in the olive oil until incorporated. Add feta and process until smooth; pulse in yogurt. Taste dip and add more salt, if desired. If you like a creamier, richer dip, add mayonnaise and pulse to combine.
• Serve dip immediately with vegetables or pita chips or cover and store in refrigerator for up to 3 days.
