This roasted garlic spinach pizza is made with roasted garlic, Ricotta and Mozzarella cheese and spinach. It is light and loaded in flavor. Very different from your typical pizza.
This is a vegetarian meal that you can make with store bought or homemade pizza dough. I used store bought to make it a little faster.
You will need to roast your garlic ahead of time for this recipe. Roasting garlic is very easy but does take some time. You will need to roast two whole head of garlic with some olive oil and salt on it in a very hot oven. Watch the video on how to do this here.
