to assemble half lavash pizza

- few spoonfuls mushroom-spinach mixture
- few kalamata olives, sliced
- 3 tbsp parmesan cheese, grated
- few fresh basil leaves julienned
- to taste crushed red pepper flakes
Instructions
Prep
- Slice the mushrooms. You will also need some fresh baby spinach.
- Heat up a castiron skillet. Once hot, add oil followed by mushrooms. Cook for a minute.
- Season with salt and black pepper. Cook for 3 minutes.
- Add 8 cups of spinach. Season with salt to taste. Cook for 3 minutes or until the spinach wilts.
- This is what you should have.
- Transfer the spinach mushroom mix to a paper towel to help soak the moisture. Doing this step will ensure your pizza won't be soggy.
Assemble
- Split a whole wheat lavash bread (I love Trader Joe's) in half.
- Spread 2 spoonfuls of your favorite marinara sauce (I used Rao's Arrabbiata Sauce). Don't add too much sauce else your pizza will be soggy.
- Spread some of the spinach mushroom mixtures. Also, top with sliced olives.
- Top with parmesan cheese (preferably the grated kind, not shredded). Grated melts way better.
- Place the lavash bread into a toaster oven and bake at 400 degrees for 4-5 minutes. The lavash bread will get toasty.
- In the meantime julienne some fresh basil.
- Pizza is done.
- Cut into 4 pieces. Top with fresh basil and red crushed pepper.
Notes
for gluten-free option: use GF lavash bread.
