Ingredients

• ½ teaspoon salt
• ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 onion, chopped
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
• 1 (15 ounce) container ricotta cheese
• 2 (9 inch) refrigerated pie crusts
• 1 (16 ounce) bag frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).

Step 2

Remove pie crust pouches from box; leave at room temperature.

Step 3

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion; cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add spinach; cook until all moisture has evaporated, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.

Step 4

Combine ricotta cheese, 1 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Add cooled spinach mixture; mix topping well.

Step 5

Unfold a pie crust onto a nonstick baking sheet; press out fold lines with fingertips. Spread half the topping onto the crust, covering all but 1 inch of the edge. Fold the edge over the topping. Repeat unfolding, spreading, and folding the second crust. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese evenly over the 2 pies.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven until the crust is lightly browned and the topping is bubbly, about 20 minutes.
