Yummy Margherita Pizza!

Come on, admit it.  Most of us LOVE pizza.  Ok, at least I do.  It's one of my favorite foods and since I have discovered this delicious, quick, and easy recipe for Margherita pizza, I have been indulging in this tasty and healthy treat.
This is the pizza I made for supper tonight and below is the recipe!

Ingredients:

1 package of pizza crust mix (I use Betty Crocker's just add water mix)
1/2 of a large slicing tomato
2-3 cups of spinach
2 Tbsp basil pesto
4-5 thin slices of fresh mozzarella cheese (this usually comes in a circular package)

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Mix pizza crust together and press into your desired pizza shape on a slightly greased cooking sheet.
3. Bake pizza crust in the oven for about 5 minutes.
4. Take crust out of oven and spread basil pesto over the crust.
5. Top with spinach, tomatoes, and mozzarella.
6. Bake for 10-12 minutes and enjoy!

*I usually cut mine into 9 slices.  Each slice is about 150 calories.
