If you don't feel like celebrating St. Patrick's Day with a traditional corned beef and cabbage dinner, make this easy pizza instead. It's got the traditional holiday ingredients (corned beef and cabbage) on a crisp crust, all topped with melting mozzarella cheese for a dinner the whole family will love. Thanks to a prepared pizza crust, like a Boboli, this is a super-quick meal to make.
Ingredients
- 2 cups of shredded green cabbage, shredded (about 1/4 head)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- Pinch of freshly ground black pepper
- 1 purchased pizza crust (such as Boboli)
- 1/4 pound thinly sliced corned beef
- 2 cups grated mozzarella cheese
Cooking Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
- In a large skillet, saute the cabbage in the olive oil over medium heat for about 5 minutes or until it is soft. Sprinkle with the salt and pepper, and remove from the heat.
- Place the pizza crust on the baking sheet. Spoon the sauteed cabbage onto the crust and spread it out evenly to within half an inch of the edge. Arrange the corned beef slices over the cabbage. Sprinkle the cheese on top of the corned beef.
- Bake the pizza for 10 to 15 minutes, until the cheese is thoroughly melted and the pizza is nice and hot. Cut into wedges and serve immediately.
Substitution(s)
- You can vary the flavor of this pizza by adding some shredded carrots to the cabbage when you sauté it. You could also add a little finely minced garlic to the vegetable mixture. Substitute one half cup of Parmesan for one half cup of the mozzarella cheese, if you like this flavor.
- In place of a Boboli, you can buy a bag of prepared pizza dough at the supermarket and press it out into a 10-inch round. Bake it for about 10 minutes in a 400 degree F oven before adding the toppings, then bake for another 10 to 15 minutes.
-
For picky eaters, omit the corned beef and cabbage, and sprinkle with some mozzarella cheese. Serve with carrot sticks or applesauce so your choosy child will get some vegetables.
Make-Ahead
You can prepare the toppings for this pizza early in the day and then assemble the pizza shortly before you plan to bake it.
