Does it get any better than red wine and pizza? This lasagna pizza paired with Casillero del Diablo (sponsor) is PERFECT for a Halloween night to remember.

Who’s excited that we’re in the -er months? I sure am! September is kind of dullsville, but by the end of this month, it will really feel like Fall is upon us. I’m loving that the Halloween decorations and costumes are already starting to appear in stores. Halloween is especially fun when you’re a parent, am I right? My kids have been talking about what they would be for this year’s Halloween since November 1st last year.

While I love seeing my kids’ excitement about dressing up and collecting free candy, it’s a bit exhausting. They go trick or treating at the zoo the weekend before; they both have costume parades at school; and then there is proper trick or treating on Halloween night. By the time they get to bed on October 31st, this mama is tired and ready for her own treat! Red wine and pizza sound just right.

Have you tried Casillero del Diablo Wines? They happen to be the official wines of Halloween thanks to their legend of a demon in the founder’s cellar (The Legend of Don Melchor de Concha y Toro), so you should definitely grab a bottle or three for the season. Just look for the devil emblem on the bottle, and trust me that the wine won’t disappoint! You don’t have to take my word for it. Casillero Diablo wines are consistently awarded “Best Buy” recognitions by wine critics. It’s the world’s most distributed wine for good reason!

In a Halloween practice night this weekend, we paired our wine with lasagna pizza. What is lasagna pizza you ask? Well, it’s pizza with layers of ricotta, meat sauce, and cheese. Good stuff! If you are making this post trick or treating, you might not be in the mood to make crust from scratch. No problemo. Just use your favorite store-bought crust. You could also make the sausage sauce ahead of time and stick it in the fridge. That way, it will only take you about five minutes to prep your pizza and pop it in the oven. Try not to fill up on mini chocolate bars and wine while you wait for it to bake.

Ah, that’s what I’m talking about. Pizza. Wine. Candy. What more could you need for a good time? Don’t even feel bad about taking the best chocolates out of your kids’ Halloween loots. Mine always want to eat the sour candies which aren’t even food as I’m concerned. They’ll never notice a few missing candy bars when they’re binging on Skittles. Trust me.

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage, and saute, breaking up meat as it cooks.
  2. When sausage is mostly cooked through, add spinach a few handfuls at a time, stirring and cooking until wilted. Stir in marinara sauce and turn off heat.
  3. While sausage cooks, place pizza crust on a pizza pan, and spread ricotta evenly over the crust. When the sausage mixture is ready, spread it over the ricotta. Sprinkle cheeses over the top. Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes or until crust is brown and cheese is melted and bubbly. Allow to stand for a few minutes before cutting.

Hubby and I loved this, Andi! Made it on a Boboli-type crust, and used about 2/3 cup of the ricotta cheese. Added some garlic powder and fresh black pepper, and some thinly sliced onion that I sauteed with the spinach. (As I usually do, I cooked the meat first, drained it, and ran hot water over it in a colander while running the disposer, getting nearly all of the grease out.)
Thanks for another winner, girl!

You and I think the same! By the time Halloween comes around I don’t want to even look at candy! Pizza and wine sounds pretty good, especially your pizza and this wine!

Pizza and wine are way better than candy, but adding some candy for dessert isn’t a bad idea. Thank you so much!
