Real Clever Food’s Four Cheese White Pizza with Garlic-Sautéed Spinach

This four cheese white pizza with garlic-sautéed spinach has been a favorite of Christy’s (@RealCleverFoods) ever since her Italian grandfather started making it for her as a little girl. It takes the best of  Italian-style comfort food and mixes it with decadent toppings for a versatile pie that works perfectly as a starter, main course, or creative side dish. 

While there’s a wide variety of white pizzas out there, we think this one will become your go-to for entertaining with its combination of provolone, mozzarella, fresh ricotta, and Pecorino Romano alongside garlic-sautéed spinach. It’s a tasty, light pizza that’s not too rich, making it great for any occasion. 

To make this white pizza really shine, we recommend using high-quality cheese that’s not too watery or reliant on additives. Most supermarkets will carry all four cheeses, but if you want to go local, try buying from a farmer’s market or specialty store for an extra-special touch.

Note

This pizza would suit a variety of dough styles –– we love our classic pizza dough for this  –– but if you want to use a sourdough base as Christy recommends, be sure to plan ahead and prep at least a day in advance. Not sure where to start? Try our sourdough pizza dough recipe.
