1.25 lb. ball of pizza dough

Butter or cooking spray (optional)

6 oz. Ricotta cheese

2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

3 links cooked Italian Sausage- sweet or spicy

4 cups fresh baby spinach

2 gloves garlic, minced

1 shallot, finely diced.

Salt

Ground pepper

Fresh grated parmesan, if desired

Procedure:

Preheat your oven to 450F.

In a bowl, mix together the ricotta and 2 cups mozzarella, season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside.

Slice the cooked sausage into 1/4 inch pieces, set aside.

Warm two teaspoons of extra virgin olive oil in a fry pan over medium heat. Add the spinach, shallot, and minced garlic to the pan and sauté for 7-10 minutes.

Coat bottom and sides of the ¶àÀֵ羺 Deep Dish Pizza Stone with melted butter or non-stick spray, if using. Use your hands to spread out dough across the bottom and up the sides of the pan. If there is any excess, you can cut it off.

Prebake the dough for about 5-7 minutes, remove from the oven and spread half of the ricotta mixture on the dough. Add the sausage and spinach to the remaining ricotta mixture and gently fold all ingredients together. And spread evenly on top of the first layer of cheese.

Sprinkle fresh grated parmesan on top, if using.

ÌýBake in the oven until the crust is golden brown, about 15-20 minutes.

Directions

Ìý

1. Bring a medium saucepan filled with water to a rolling boil. Carefully lower the eggs into the water, making sure the shells don’t crack.Ìý Lower the heat and simmer the water for 10 minutes.Ìý Drain the water, leaving the eggs in the pot, and refill the pot with cold tap water.Ìý Set aside until the eggs are cool enough to handle.Ìý Peel the eggs by tapping both ends of the egg on a board, then roll the egg between your hand and the board to crackle the shell—et voilà—perfectly shelled eggs!Ìý Set the shelled eggs aside to cool completely.Ìý

Ìý

2. Once the eggs are cooled, slice each egg about ½-inch thick and transfer the sliced eggs into a large bowl.

Ìý

3. Next, add the mayonnaise, Roquefort cheese, parsley, lemon zest, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined.Ìý Don’t worry about breaking up the egg slices, that is exactly what you want to happen.

4. Spoon the egg salad mixture on each toasted bread slice, garnish with little drizzle of olive oil, and top each one with micro greens. If you don’t have micro greens, more fresh parsley will work just fine!
