Directions

In a small saucepan over medium heat, heat butter. Add onion and sauté for five minutes. Add garlic and sauté until onions are soft and translucent.
Add spinach and cook for three minutes. Add egg and spices and cook for an additional three minutes, stirring constantly. You should be left with a creamy spinach mixture.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a 6 x 12-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
Roll out pizza dough into an 18 x 10-inch rectangle.
Spread a generous amount of cream cheese on the entire dough. Spread the spinach mixture on top, then sprinkle a generous amount of Mexican blend cheese over the pizza.
Cut dough into 20 squares. Stack four on top of each other, ensuring that the first and last face the center, with the dough being the last (not cheese). Repeat with remaining squares.
Place each stack lying on its side in the loaf pan.
Bake for 35–40 minutes, until golden brown.

Tips:
If you are making this in advance, the best way is to freeze it raw and bake fresh. Allow to thaw before baking. Alternatively, you can bake it for only 25 minutes, then freeze, then finish baking it fresh.
