Garlic Mushroom and Spinach Pizza

I am a big Mushroom lover, not everyone is. Because of my love for mushrooms, I always keep on experimenting.  Almost every Friday I try something with mushrooms whether a pizza or a toast but this Friday, I tried a variation of my garlic and mushroom pizza. Instead of making pizza I used the pizza dough to make pizza bun. I loved the garlic mushroom and spinach pizza so I am sharing it with you. You can customize it by making toast, pizza rolls or buns.

Few things to keep in mind:

I made no variations in the recipe except making pizza rolls.  I started from the toppings while you can organize the way you like. I made the spinach cream using fresh spinach, vegan cream cheese and some spices. You can also use frozen spinach for the spinach cream. Add a few pieces of garlic to the cream cheese so that it gives some flavor to the pizza.  Remember not to add a lot of garlic as a few pieces of roasted garlic also give mild flavor. Keep the pizza for baking and it  is in process, you can pan-fry the mushrooms. I suggest not to bake the mushrooms as they become tasteless and dry after baking. Here are some ingredients that you need for making the mushroom pizza.

Ingredients:      

1. Pizza dough
2. Spinach
3. Garlic cloves
4. Dairy-free cream cheese
5. Dairy-free cheese
6. Olive oil
7. Mushrooms
8. Some spices
9. Pine nuts

Time to cook:

1. First of all, heat the oven to 400 degrees. Roll out the pizza dough using a rolling pin and place it in a pizza pan or a pizza stone.
2. In case you are frozen spinach, boil it in salted water for some time until it starts to get wilt. Squeeze it well and chop.
3. Heat the oil in a pan and roast the pieces of garlic for 30-40 seconds. Add cream cheese and spinach to the roasted garlic. Add some salt and pepper to give it some taste and stir it well.
4. Now spread the spinach cream mixture and vegan cheese on the pizza.
5. Put that pizza in the oven and let it bake for 15-17 minutes until the cheese gets melted.
6. While the pizza is baking, add some oil in the fry pan and fry the mushrooms until they get browned and add some salt to it.
7. Toast the pine nuts in the other pan without adding oil.
8. When your pizza gets baked, add mushrooms and pine nuts and enjoy the pizza.
