Bistro Apple Pizza
This Bistro Apple Pizza truly does blend some unlikely flavors together with a totally-delicious outcome. The picture above shows the pizza as it came out hot from the oven, but I'm going to include a "before" picture as well to show you how pretty it looked even before baking. You could anticipate how good tasting the pizza was going to be by the way it looked even prior to baking. I made this for dinner last night to rave reviews. For three of us, I made two pizzas and had to cut into a few slices of the second one. I didn't have a category that this would slide into nicely...all I knew was that it was so good I had to offer it to my visitors. So here it is! I guess it can stand alone for now. It is surely a big apple pizza...big on savory taste. The original recipe for Bistro Apple Pizza I was given permission to use from the Washington Apple Commission. Because of particular likes and dislikes in my own household, I made a few adaptations. I will make both available to you, so you can make your own choices. The instructions are for one pizza only, but the amounts are easily doubled or tripled. Ingredients
2 teaspoons garlic, minced 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 12-inch prepared pizza dough crust 2 cups fresh spinach, coarsely chopped 1 1/2 cups Red Delicious, Golden Delicious, or Granny Smith apples, peeled and thinly sliced (or chopped) *I used Golden Delicious and they worked out very well. 1 cup shredded low-fat, part skim Mozzarella cheese 1 cup crumbled Blue, Gorgonzola or Roquefort cheese. *I left this out, but if you enjoy one of these cheeses, by all means add it to the mix. I'm sure you'll love that combination, too. 1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese *I used 1 cup of Pecorino-Romano cheese one time and Parmigiano-Reggiano another time. Both were incredible...it just depends on what you like. 1 teaspoon dried leaf oregano
* These are the changes I made to the original recipe. I thought you might like a few different choices, but I'm sure the original recipe is wonderful, too.
Original recipe indicated that one pizza serves 4.
