Total Time

40 minutes

Ingredients

1 (16-ounce) package Natural Grocers Brand Frozen Gluten-Free Pizza Dough, thawed and brought to room temperature

1 cup organic pizza sauce

1 (12-oz) package Natural Grocers Brand Organic Mozzarella Cheese Shreds

2 cups organic baby spinach, divided

Choice of vegetable toppings: Natural Grocers Brand Organic Roasted Red Pepper Strips, sliced, Natural Grocers Brand Organic Green Olives, sliced organic grape tomatoes, small organic broccoli florets, sliced organic red onion

1 teaspoon Natural Grocers Brand Bulk Organic Ground Oregano

2 tablespoons Natural Grocers Brand Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil

1⁄2 cup Natural Grocers Brand Organic Grated Parmesan Cheese

Directions

Preheat oven to 450° F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
To create the Christmas tree shape for the pizza dough, divide the dough into two portions—one portion should be ¾ of the dough, and the other should be ¼ of the dough. Roll the ¾-portion into a rectangle about 13 x 9-inches and 1/8-inch thick. From the top center of the dough, cut diagonally down to each bottom corner to form a triangle (tree shape). Add the trimmed dough to the ¼-portion and repeat the process to make a second tree. Use leftover dough to create a tree trunk at the bottom of each triangle and a star at the top. Place each tree-shaped dough onto a separate parchment-lined baking sheet.
Spread a layer of sauce over each tree, then cover the sauce with baby spinach leaves to mimic tree foliage. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella over the spinach, then decorate with your choice of vegetables.
Sprinkle oregano over each pizza and drizzle with olive oil. Bake in the preheated oven for 16-20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
Remove the pizzas from the oven and sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over the top. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving.
