Time 45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon olive oil
4 Roma tomatoes, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
½ teaspoon crushed red pepper
½ teaspoon salt
1 (14 ounce) package prepared pizza crust
½ pound bulk hot Italian sausage
½ yellow onion, thinly sliced
½ bulb fennel, thinly sliced
½ cup baby spinach leaves
½ cup ricotta cheese
¼ cup shaved Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Heat a frying pan over medium heat. Add olive oil. Add tomatoes, garlic, Italian seasoning, red pepper, and salt. Cook, stirring often, until tomatoes have mostly broken down, about 5 minutes. Spread tomato mixture over the pizza crust.
  • Heat the same pan over medium-high heat. Add sausage and cook until browned, about 6 minutes. Remove cooked sausage from the pan and set aside, reserving grease in the pan. Add onion and fennel to the pan and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add spinach and cook until leaves begin to wilt, about 30 seconds.
  • Spread sausage and vegetable mixture over tomato-covered crust. Scatter dollops of ricotta cheese on top. Sprinkle with shaved Parmesan cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted and top is beginning to brown, 8 to 10 minutes.

I'm not a big fan of fennel, but I still liked this pizza. The other ingredients really balanced out the flavor.

This pizza was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think I'll use less red pepper flakes next time.

I was really excited to try this recipe, but I was disappointed. The pizza was too salty for my taste.

This was the worst pizza I've ever had. The crust was burnt, the toppings were bland, and the whole thing was just a mess.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my pizza didn't turn out as good as I hoped. I think I might have overcooked it.

The pizza was delicious, but I found the fennel to be a bit overpowering. Next time, I'll use less of it.
