Sausage, Red Bell Pepper and Spinach Pesto Pizza

Ingredients

• 2 cups Baby Spinach
• 3 cloves Garlic, Chopped
• ¼ cups Grated Parmesan
• ¼ cups Pine Nuts, Toasted
• 1 pinch Coarse Salt And Freshly Ground Pepper
• ½ cups Extra-virgin Olive Oil, Plus 1 Tablespoon, Divided

Preparation Instructions

In a food processor, blitz the spinach, garlic, parmesan, pine nuts, and a good pinch of salt and pepper. With the motor running, add the 1/2 cup oil in a thin stream until pesto-y. Set aside.

Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in a medium skillet and add the sausage. Break up with a wooden spoon and cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Set aside.

To the pan, add the red pepper. Add a little more oil if needed. Throw a teeny dash of salt in there.

Grab your crust and evenly spoon the pesto over it. Sprinkle a little cheese on top. Then add some sausage. Then some cheese. Then some peppers. Then more cheese. Mommy.

Bake according to package directions (around 10 minutes), slice her up and eat the WHOLE THING.
