    • 1 medium red onion, diced
    • 1/2 pound bulk Italian sausage
    • 3 cups fresh baby spinach
    • 1 tablespoon Fustini's Parmesan Spice blend
    • 1 tube (13.8 ounces) refrigerated pizza crust

    Directions

    1. Preheat the oven to 400°,. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and sauté, onions until translucent. Add crumbled sausage over medium heat and cook until no longer pink, 4-6 minutes, drain. Add seasoning and spinach, cook and stir until wilted. Remove from heat and add goat cheese, salt, and pepper.
    2. On a lightly floured surface, unroll and pat dough into a 15x11-in. rectangle. Cut into 4 rectangles. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on half of each rectangle to within 1 in. of edges. Spoon sausage mixture over mozzarella cheese. Fold dough over filling, press edges with a fork to seal. Place on prepared baking sheet.
