Ricotta & Spinach Pizza Recipe
A cheesy – and healthy – pizza for you and your family! This recipe is great on pizza, in wraps or on a sandwich, but we love it for National Pizza Week!
Take a shortcut and use premade pizza crust or make your own pizza dough.
We love pizza night where we all contribute to making the perfect pizza to share, or individual pizzas. Add a movie and call it a family movie night. Either way, you can’t go wrong with pizza!
