Ingredients
  

1 pre-made pizza crust (store-bought or homemade)

1 cup artichoke hearts, drained and chopped

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup ricotta cheese

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1/2 cup spinach, fresh or frozen (thawed and drained)

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) to ensure a crispy crust.

    Prepare the Pizza Base: If you're using a store-bought pizza crust, follow the instructions for pre-baking. If it's homemade, roll out the dough to your desired thickness.

      Make the Artichoke Mixture: In a medium bowl, combine the chopped artichoke hearts, ricotta cheese, half of the mozzarella cheese, spinach, minced garlic, olive oil, oregano, and season with salt and pepper. Mix until well combined.

        Assemble the Pizza: Spread the artichoke mixture evenly over the pizza crust. Leave a small border around the edge for the crust. Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese on top, followed by the grated Parmesan cheese and red pepper flakes (if using).

          Bake the Pizza: Place the assembled pizza on a baking sheet or pizza stone. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.

            Garnish and Serve: Once the pizza is out of the oven, let it cool for a couple of minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves before slicing. Serve hot and enjoy your delightful artichoke pizza!
