 This is the recipe I've created after eating Applebee's pizza appetizer.  I 
 mixed the ingredients ahead of time while cooking other items, then all I 
 had to was split the bread open, put the toppings on and bake!
 
 Spinach Pizza
 
 Ingredients:
 
 Pita Bread (2 or 3 whole)
 1 - 10oz pkg frozen spinach
 1/3 cup nutritional yeast
 1 med. onion
 5 or 6 plum tomatoes
 8 oz pkg fresh mushrooms
 3-4 cloves garlic
 1 tsp of each of the following spices:
 basil, parsley, cayenne pepper
 1/2 to 1 cup rice milk
 4 tbsp flour
 
 Thaw spinach completely, press out all water.  Heat milk in saucepan, when 
 hot but not boiling stir in flour.  Stir until sauce begins to thicken, turn 
 heat down.  Add nutritional yeast and spinach.  Stir constantly until thick 
 and gooey, only about 3-4 min.
 In separate pan, saute onion, garlic, until onion is tender.  Stir in 
 tomatoes, mushrooms, and spices.  Saute until just done.  Preheat oven to 
 425.  Using a very sharp bread knife, split each pita bread so that you have 
 two round flat pieces instead of one thick one.  Place each piece of bread 
 on a cookie sheet or pizza pan.  Spread spinach sauce over each.  Top with 
 tomato mixture, being careful to avoid the juice.  Bake for 5 to 7 min. 
  Watch closely so that the edges of the pita don't burn.  Makes a nice 
 crunchy crust.  This made enough for 5 individual pizzas.  Sorry, I don't 
 have nutritional info.
