Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400.

In a small bowl, combine tomato sauce, red pepper flakes and garlic; stir to mix well.

Place both pitas on a baking sheet. Using a pastry brush or spoon, evenly divide sauce mixture between pitas,leaving a 1/4 in border around edges. Sprinkle with spinach, then arrange mozzarella rounds over top, dividing both evenly.

Bake 8-10 mins, until greens are wilted and cheese is melted. Remove from oven, sprinkle with basil, dividing evenly and serve immediately. If you're enjoying 1 pizza, loosely wrap remaining pizza in aluminum foil or store in sealable container for up to 2 days. Reheat in warm oven or serve at room temperature.
