Margherita Pizza

We had a good lunch today.  I love to buy the whole wheat flatbread and make pizzas.  Today we had my version of a Margherita pizza.  I warmed some olive oil along with a clove of minced garlic.  After the olive oil had been infused with the garlic (you'll know, you can smell it), I very liberally brushed the flatbread with the oil.  With the oil that was left, I wilted about 3 handfuls of spinach and I added a shake or two of dried basil.  The heat really warms up the flavor of the basil.  If I'm making this for myself, I add salt and pepper to the spinach, but I didn't add any for the kids.  Once that is wilted, spread it on the flatbread.  Then top with cheese and slices of roma tomatoes.  I baked it at 350 for about 5-10 minutes - just long enough for the cheese to melt.  Here is a pic of the pizza right after I took it out of the oven.
