Ingredients
Scale
- 1 small onion diced
- 1 pound ground Italian sausage I use turkey sausage.
- 6 ounces bag fresh baby spinach
- 14 ounces canned fire-roasted diced tomatoes with garlic drained
- 8 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese diced into 1/2” cubes
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cups milk
- 1/2 cups biscuit baking mix I used gluten-free mix.
- 1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a 9-inch deep dish or 12″ shallow pie pan with cooking spray and set aside.
-
Spray a 12″ skillet with cooking spray, and heat over medium-high heat. Add onion and sausage, and saute, crumbling meat as it cooks, until sausage is mostly cooked through.
-
Reduce heat to medium. Stir in half of the spinach, and cook until wilted. Stir in remaining spinach and drained tomatoes. Gently stir and cook until spinach is all wilted.
-
Drain sausage and spinach mixture well, and then pour into pie pain. Spread cubed mozzarella over the top, and gently press cheese into the meat.
-
Stir together egg, milk, biscuit mix, and Italian seasoning. Spread dough over the top of the sausage and cheese. (Note: This dough is a good amount for a 9″ dish but doesn’t completely cover the 12″ dish as shown here. You can double the egg, milk, and biscuit mix if you are using a large pan and would like more coverage.)
-
Sprinkle parmesan over the top, and bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes or until top is brown and cheese is melted. Allow to stand for about 5 minutes before serving.
