It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

The sugar and yeast need each other to make the dough rise. The water needs to be at 130 degrees temperature for best results. I mixed it in my Bosch mixer. I baked the crust before adding the toppings to make sure it baked thoroughly, and it made a delicious thick crust. I used whole wheat pastry flour and rolled out the dough using the flour to keep it from being too gooey. A pizza stone was used to bake it which helped it from sticking. Grilled onion, corn, green peppers, mushrooms and sliced olives on top of oil free pizza sauce made it scrumptious.

You don't want hot water but you DO want warm water. Don't use cold water as someone else said. Make sure your yeast is "alive" by testing some with some warm water. Also make sure the yeast doesn't touch the salt or sugar when you initially put it in the machine. It will obviously touch them as it mixes but pour them in separate.
Never use HOT water with yeast - I use cold water but if in a hurry use warm water. Salt is not optional.

We tried this recipe and the dough didn't rise after letting it sit for 15 minutes. Any suggestions?
Cut it down to only 2 servings just me and my wife (watching our weight ) only 165 cal per crust came out great would make again.

I liked this recipe except the bottom of the crust was to hard...I prefer it being less firm

Came out sticky, but after kneading a 1/4 cup of flour into the dough the texture was perfect. Maybe next time I will just add the extra flour in bread machine. Tasted amazing! Slightly sweet and hearty. Will never buy store bought again.
