SD #7: From The Kitchen

I woke up super hungry today, so I made the most delicious lunch using a new recipe.  It's times like this when I'm most excited that I most always have fresh spinach in my fridge.  I wouldn't know what to do without it these days.  ; )

(Low Carb)

I highly recommend trying out this recipe.  It was outstanding and I can't wait to make it again.  In fact, I purchased another huge tub of fresh spinach at Sams today. Mmm...

Spinach Pizza Crust

by Yourlighterside.com

1 cup loosely packed, fresh spinach
1 egg
1 cup loosely packed mozzarella cheese
1 tsp dry basil
1/2 tsp oregano

Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.

Chop the fresh spinach leaves (or pulse in the food processor). Mix with the rest of the ingredients.

Spread dough on a lightly sprayed pizza pan (I use olive oil Pam). 

Bake for 12-15 minutes or until edges begin to brown. 

From here, you can freeze or top the baked crust with ingredients and place under a broiler for 2-3 minutes, or until cheese melts.

Makes one, 12" crust.

I also baked the rest of the cookies and decorated them today.  Here are a few photos taken with my iPhone...

I'm about to try a cookie for sampling purposes.  

I'll be sure to post the recipe soon if it's worth sharing.
