If you’re looking for a dinner that’s fast, healthy, seasonal, and delicious, this is the recipe to try. Use store-bought pizza dough and pile on some seasonal toppings, creamy cheese, and fresh herbs, and you have yourself a pizza that is just as good for you as it is good to eat.

You can vary the recipe according to what you have on hand, and it makes a great use for leftover steamed spring veggies. The directions are so easy, you may end up having a Family Pizza Night–but it will be a really healthy one! Such a clever way to get your kids to eat their greens:
