INGREDIENTS
•Pizza dough (fresh at market or from Pillsbury)
•Olive oil
•1 cup diced zucchini
•1 cup diced mushrooms
•½ bell pepper
•1 cup fresh chopped spinach
•1 cup pizza sauce
•2 cups shredded mozzarella
•Non-stick spray

•2 egg whites
DIRECTIONS
•As you prepare this dish, save a small quantity of every ingredient, untouched, for your muffin tin presentation.                                         
1.Dice your ingredients as needed and preheat your oven to 350F.                      
2.Sauté for zucchini, pepper and mushrooms for 5 -10 minutes or until tender. Add spinach for 2 minutes. Season it up with some Italian seasonings and parsley. 
3.Add tomato sauce to mixture. This filling should be pretty thick so as not to run out of pockets.
4.Cut your dough into chunks and roll out into 8” ovals.
5.Spread filling and cheese on one side. Form a pocket and pinch the edges closed for a tight seal.
6.Place pockets on greased baking sheet and brush with egg whites.
7.Bake at 350F for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
