Spinach Ricotta Slab Pie

Yum. That's all I have to say.

 

 

 

Spinach Ricotta Slab Pie

 

1/2 lb Italian sausage

1/2 lb ground beef

1/8 cup minced sweet onion

2 cloves minced garlic

1 cup Italian cheese blend

1/4 cup parmesan

1 to 2 cups ricotta (If you want, you can find out how to easily make whole milk ricotta here!)

1 bag fresh spinach

 

2 pie crusts (I use this recipe, and sub some whole wheat flour)

 

Sauté meat and onions until browned, then add garlic and sauté for just another minute. Drain off grease, and then add cheeses, including the ricotta. Add the spinach and allow to wilt. Remove from heat.

Roll out one pie crust to line a 9x13 sheet pan (or whatever your crust will fit in!), pile on filling, then roll out your second crust and lay it on top. Pinch edges to seal, cut a slit in the top, then bake at 400 degrees for 25-35 minutes, or until top is golden brown.
