Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Heat olive oil in a large saucepan. Add butternut squash and sauté for about 5-7 minutes or until squash is just about fork tender.
  • Add spinach leaves and sauté for about 3 minutes more or until spinach has wilted.
  • Stir in caramelized onions. Distribute the butternut squash, spinach and onion mixture over each slice of your chosen crust.
  • Top with bacon, if using. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the top of each pizza. Cook for 4-5 minutes or until cheese has melted.

Note

  • For a crispier crust, you can pre-bake the crust for a few minutes, let cool, and then top.
