We like adding fun mushrooms to this pizza—like enoki and oyster—but you can use any kind. Have kids toss and shape the dough

Ingredients

3tablespoons olive oil, divided
1medium onion, sliced
2teaspoons sugar
1/2teaspoon salt
2cups assorted mushrooms
24ounces fresh pizza dough
1cup cream cheese
6ounces shredded Mozzarella and Provolone cheese blend
2cups shredded fresh spinach leaves

Instructions

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet. Add onions, sugar and salt. Cook over medium-low heat 30 to 45 minutes, until onions are brown and caramelized.
  2. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet. Add mushrooms and cook until they begin to release their liquid.
  3. Preheat oven to 450F.
  4. Roll out pizza dough into a 12-inch round or square. Spread cream cheese over top. Add half the mozzarella and provolone cheese. Add caramelized onions and spinach. Add mushrooms. Add remaining mozzarella and provolone.
  5. Bake 25 to 20 minutes, until crust is crispy and cheese is melted.
