- 1/4 cup diced pimientos, drained

make it
PREP
Place spinach in colander, under cool running water, to thaw; break into smaller pieces, as possible. Preheat oven 425°F. Cut salami into bite-size pieces.
STEPS
1. Preheat large saute pan on medium-high 2-3 minutes. Add ground meat and Italian seasoning; brown 5-7 minutes, stirring to crumble meat, or until no pink remains. Drain spinach thoroughly by pressing firmly against colander. Stir pimientos, pepperoni, salami, spinach, and Bruschetta spread into meat; cook 1-2 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Transfer to a medium bowl and set aside 1-2 minutes to cool.
2. Stir in eggs and cheese, and then transfer to a 9x13-inch baking dish. Unroll pie crust over meat mixture. (Stretch dough to fit or use extra dough that overlaps sides to cover extra space at each end of the baking dish; press edges together on each end.) Trim and seal or crimp edges. Cut two small slits in center of crust.
3. Bake 25-30 minutes or until mixture is bubbly and crust is golden. Serve.
Notes
I skip the pimientos and its just fine without them.
