Sausage Spinach Pockets

First off, this recipe was one of those 'gotta find something to eat even though I desperately need to go to the grocery store' meals. I had all these items on hand, and so this recipe was born.

Sausage Spinach Pockets

1 refrigerated pizza crust
1 lb sausage (I used turkey sausage)
3 cups chopped fresh spinach
2 cups mozzarella cheese
2 Tbsp olive oil
2 Tbsp Parmesan cheese

• Cook sausage (drain).
• Put sausage back in pan and add spinach. Cook until spinach begins to wilt.
• In a large bowl combine sausage/spinach with mozzarella cheese.
• On a greased baking sheet, spread out pizza crust and cut into 4 large rectangles.
• Begin to spoon 1/4 cup mixture* onto half of each rectangle. Fold crust over and seal the edges by pressing down with a fork around the entire pocket.
• Brush the tops with olive oil for a nice brown crust. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese.

Bake @ 400 degrees for 10-15 minutes.
*You will have about half of the sausage mixture left over. Using one pizza crust serves 4, so I froze the remaining mixture for a quick meal on a busy night. If you have a big family, simply buy two pizza crusts and you're done!

Happy Cooking!
