First off, I would like to thank Karen of Tasty Trials and MM of Ms. Enplace for becoming followers of my blog!

Prosciutto mozzarella pinwheels



Ingredients

•Flour, for dusting
•1 pound purchased pizza dough
•2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
•7 ounces prosciutto, thinly sliced
•1 cup coarsely chopped baby spinach (about 1 1/2 ounces)
•1 tablespoon olive oil
•Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and position a rack in the lower 1/3 of the oven. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the pizza dough. Sprinkle with mozzarella. Layer ham or proscuitto, add fresh chopped spinach. Now top with mozzarella. Roll it up!

I used ham for this pinwheel...........


Bake at 425 F for 25 minutes. Let it cool before you cut it.

Look at the size of this bad boy - bigger than some babies I've seen.



Comfort food - fast to put together - Easy!

  2. The melted cheese is simply irresistible. This log pizza is perfect for me as I am a known sucker for anything that even resembles pizza.
