Spinach, Cherry Tomato, and Feta Pizza
Making pizza at home from scratch isn’t as easy as ordering it to-go, but it doesn’t have to be much harder than that. I recently combined two Food Network recipes (thanks, Rachael and Giada) for an easy dinner that needed only a simple romaine salad to complete. The dough for the extra-crispy crust comes together in minutes with the aid of a food processor, and can be made a day ahead and refrigerated. Vary the toppings to suit you, but I really like this Greek-flavored combo that would be all the better with a scattering of Kalamata olives. – Susan Puckett
