You start by preheating the oven to 450 degrees. You will need a Pillsbury pie crust, fresh spinach, and sliced mushrooms. Also 1 tablespoon of oil. Cut up the mushrooms (unless you were smart, unlike me, and bought the pre-sliced ones.) My fresh spinach had stems so I cut those off. It calls for 2 cups of sliced mushrooms and 6 ounces of spinach. Heat the oil in a pan over medium to high heat. Cook the mushrooms and spinach for about 5-7 minutes until done. Spray a cookie sheet with cooking spray, I'd recommend just a big enough space to put the pie crust. Have the pie crust thawed (it recommends 15 minutes at room temp so I took it out before I started cutting and cooking. It was good when I was ready.) I sprayed the whole cookie sheet, which then started to burn off in the oven. As the mushrooms and spinach are cooking, roll the pie crust out on the cookie sheet. When the mushrooms and spinach are done, pour them onto the pie crust, leaving a little bit around the sides empty. Then fold the pie crust edges up over the mixture, about 2 inches at a time. After that put it in the oven for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. After that enjoy! The boyfriend said it was really good, I just didn't use enough spinach and he also said it needed some kind of dipping sauce. Though we aren't really sure what we should use. I've included pictures below of my process. Also will include a link to the original recipe I got from Pillsbury's web page.
Enjoy!
Updated, I made it again, this time throwing on some sliced black olives right before baking. In addition to using much more spinach. Also served it with an alfredo sauce. Boyfriend said it was much better this time around.

| Most recent attempt. Much better than original attempt! |
I'd probably cook some garlic with the spinach and mushrooms and add a little salt and pepper, but it sounds good!
ReplyDeleteOh yeah gotta have garlic and just enough salt. Much more spinach, yummy.
ReplyDeleteYeah must use more spinach. Might try the garlic too next time. I'm thinking of making one for me with spinach and sliced black olives. Not sure how that'd turn out.
ReplyDeleteMade it again tonight, this time used the whole bunch of fresh spinach, and 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms. Al threw on some black olives just before cooking it in the oven. Also served with an Alfredo sauce. He said it was much better this time!
ReplyDeleteYum!
