Ingredients

1. All-purpose flour, for dusting
2. 12 ounces prepared pizza dough, divided into 2 pieces
3. 5 ounces baby spinach
4. 1/2 cup frozen baby peas, thawed
5. 1 cup peeled and finely diced cucumber
6. 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
7. 2 tablespoons chopped mint
8. 2 tablespoons chopped dill
9. 2 teaspoons minced garlic
10. One 17-ounce container Greek-style plain whole-milk yogurt
11. 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
12. 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
13. 2 cups shredded romaine lettuce
14. Kosher salt
15. 1/2 cup za’atar spice mix (see Note)

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 450° and place a pizza stone on the bottom rack to heat for 30 minutes. Alternatively, place an inverted baking sheet in the oven.
2. On a lightly floured work surface, flatten the pizza dough into two 9-inch rounds, about 1/4 inch thick; transfer to 2 well-floured pizza peels or inverted baking sheets. Let stand until slightly risen, 20 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, wilt the spinach with 1 tablespoon of water over high heat. Transfer to a colander and rinse with cold water. Squeeze out the liquid and chop the spinach; transfer to a bowl. Add the peas and mash lightly with a fork. Stir in the cucumber, parsley, mint, dill and garlic. Add the yogurt, lemon juice and 2 tablespoons of olive oil and stir to combine. Fold in the romaine and season with salt.
4. In a bowl, combine the za’atar with the remaining oil and a generous pinch of salt.
5. Shake the pizza peel a few times to loosen the dough. Dust flour under any areas that stick. Spread the za’atar oil over the dough. Slide the rounds onto the hot stone and bake for 10 minutes, until golden and crisp. Transfer the breads to a work surface and cut into wedges. Serve with the cucumber yogurt.
