Spinach Pizza Pie - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 (9 inch) refrigerated pie crusts
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    1 onion, chopped
    1 (16 ounce) bag frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
    1 (15 ounce) container ricotta cheese
    2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
    2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
Preparation
    Remove pie crust pouches from box; leave at room temperature.
    Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion; cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add spinach; cook until all moisture has evaporated, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
    Combine ricotta cheese, 1 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Add cooled spinach mixture; mix topping well.
    Unfold a pie crust onto a nonstick baking sheet; press out fold lines with fingertips. Spread half the topping onto the crust, covering all but 1 inch of the edge. Fold the edge over the topping. Repeat unfolding, spreading, and folding the second crust. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese evenly over the 2 pies.
    Bake in the preheated oven until the crust is lightly browned and the topping is bubbly, about 20 minutes.
