Four-Cheese Spinach Pizza

TOTAL TIME: Prep/Total Time: 30 min. YIELD: 6 servings.
I adapted this recipe from one given to me by my Aunt Rosemary. I especially like to make this pizza in summer when fresh spinach and basil are plentiful—they are key to the wonderful taste. —Barbara Robinson of Hamburg, Pennsylvania
