Health benefits of Mini Spinach & Ricotta Pizzas

Spinach is a nutrient-dense leafy green vegetable that is rich in vitamins A, C, and K, as well as iron, magnesium, and antioxidants. The high iron content in spinach helps combat anemia, which is common in women with PCOS. Magnesium helps reduce inflammation and improve insulin sensitivity. The antioxidants in spinach can help lower oxidative stress, which is beneficial for managing PCOS symptoms. Including spinach in your diet can support overall health and well-being.

Ingredients

1 wholemeal pita
1/4 cup ricotta
1 cup frozen, leaf spinach
1 tsp leaves oregano
1 dash black pepper
1 clove garlic

Instructions

1. Cut pitta in half and place on a baking tray covered with aluminum foil.

2. Pre-heat oven to 400 °F (200 °C).

3. Peel and crush the garlic, then mix in a bowl with half the ricotta, oregano and pepper. Season with pepper (and salt if you wish).

4. Spread the mixture on the pitta breads, then top with chopped spinach.

5. Finally, crumble the remaining ricotta cheese over the top.

6. Place in oven for about 5 minutes, and remove when cheese starts to brown.

7. Eat straight away for maximum enjoyment!

8. Note: I prefer to use 2 mini-pittas, but I've written this recipe for a normal-sized pitta because it's easier to find in the supermarket.
