• •2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• •1 tablespoon olive oil
• •1 teaspoon dried oregano
• •1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• •Salt and pepper to taste
• •Cornmeal (for dusting, optional)

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).

2. 2

   If using a store-bought pizza crust, roll it out on a floured surface to your desired thickness. If using homemade dough, prepare it as usual and shape into a pizza crust.

3. 3

   Dust a baking sheet or pizza stone with cornmeal for a crispy base (optional). Place the crust on the prepared surface.

4. 4

   Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the crust, leaving a small border around the edges.

5. 5

   In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they are soft and golden. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

6. 6

   Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, stirring until the spinach is wilted. Remove from heat.

7. 7

   Spread the sautéed mushrooms and spinach mixture evenly over the pizza sauce. Top generously with shredded mozzarella cheese and sprinkle with dried oregano.

8. 8

   Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.
