Mushroom and Spinach Pizza

I still had some leftover roasted garlic puree from a previous recipe, so decided to make a bunch of mushroom, spinach and roasted garlic mini pizzas for the freezer. We loves us our pizza for weekday lunches! I was pretty much inconsolable last wkd because I couldn't find rapini for my famous (only in our home) carmelized onion, kalamata olive & braised rapini pizzas, I had to create an alternate recipe - this was the result!

10 whole wheat pitas
3/4 of a bag shredded Italian 4 blend cheese
a whole bunch of sliced brown mushrooms, say, 7 cups?
1.5 packages of fresh spinach leaves
Some chopped mint and oregano (from my aero garden) - 1.5 tbsp?
splash of madeira wine
1.5 tbsp (?) of roasted garlic puree

Saute the mushrooms, along with the garlic puree, some s & p, add a glug of madeira - cook to your liking. Let cool on platter. In same pan (w/ juices), cook the spinach until wilted. Add chopped herbs. Cool, then squeeze dry the spinach.

Sprinkle pitas w/ cheese. Add 'strands' of spinach, then a bunch of cooked mushrooms - freeze on cookie sheet in freezer - stack and store in freezer!
