Pizza at home can be just as tasty as one from a local pizzeria. This pizza gets a jumpstart by using a lot of ready-made ingredients, including the dough. The trick is how you cook the dough.
Ingredients
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 cup fresh spinach
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 package refrigerated pizza dough , 14 ounce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.33 cups pizza sauce
- 0.67 cups shredded Italian cheese blend , divided
- 0.33 cups chopped cooked chicken breast
- 0.25 cups sun-dried tomatoes , cut into thin strips
- 1 tablespoon butter

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Mix salt and garlic powder together in a small bowl.

Combine spinach and water in a microwave steamer. Microwave on high for 60 seconds. Drain spinach, then squeeze out any excess water.

Roll pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to a 14-inch circle.

Pour oil into a 12-inch cast iron skillet. Sprinkle 1/2 of the garlic salt over the bottom of the skillet. Place dough into the skillet and shape crust so edges come up the sides of the skillet. Prick holes in the bottom of the dough with a fork.

Scallop Gratin
As far as I'm concerned, a simple gratin is the most delicious way to cook fresh scallops. The only real way to screw this recipe up would be to use the wrong scallops. And by wrong, I mean any scallops that have been soaked in a preservative brine. These are easy to identify, as they're usually sitting in a pool of milky liquid. What you want are usually sold as wild 'day-boat,' 'diver,' or 'dry-pack' scallops. They are really expensive, and worth every penny. Serve with French bread for dipping.
Authentic Mandelbrot
I grew up in a Jewish neighborhood where a traditional snack was Mandelbrot. I so enjoyed visiting my friends as these homey cookies came fresh out of the oven with the most fantastic aroma. Luckily for me, one of the mothers shared this recipe and I've cherished and enjoyed it ever since.
