Cooking Tips

• For a crispier crust, pre-bake the pizza dough for a few minutes before adding the toppings.
• Feel free to add additional toppings such as sliced tomatoes, caramelized onions, or roasted garlic.
• If you prefer a stronger goat's cheese flavor, use a variety with a higher intensity.
• To make the pizza dough from scratch, combine flour, yeast, salt, water, and olive oil in a bowl. Knead until smooth, then let it rise for about an hour before rolling it out.

Storage and Serving

• Leftover pizza can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• Reheat the pizza in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes, or until heated through.
• Serve the Goat's Cheese and Spinach Pizza as a main dish with a side salad, or cut it into smaller pieces for appetizers or party snacks.
