Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
4 personal size pizza crusts
1 olive oil -- plus more as needed
2 cups halved thinly sliced onions -- up to 3
8 ounces baby spinach leaves (4-5 packed cups) -- rinsed well
2 medium clove garlic -- minced
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup pine nuts
1 cup provolone cheese -- shredded


Preheat oven to 400°F. Make sure to have pizza stone in oven when preheating. Preheat for 15 minutes.

In large, nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat. Add onions and cook, stirring often, until golden, about 8 minutes. Stir in spinach, sprinkle lightly with salt, cover and cook just until spinach wilts, about 2 minutes. Stir in garlic and vinegar, cover and cook 1 minute. Remove from heat and set aside.

Cover each pizza crust with some of the spinach-onion mixture. Sprinkle with provolone cheese and pine nuts. Put pizza on peel or on back of baking sheet. When oven is ready, slide pizza on stone. Bake for 8 minutes at 400°F. Remove from oven and cut into 4 slices each. Serve immediately.
