30-Minute Ricotta Lemon Pizza (Gluten Free Option)
This crunchy ricotta lemon pizza is topped with lots of gooey melted cheese, cracked black pepper and bright, fresh lemon flavor...which just makes me SO happy. My favorite part of this pizza recipe is the thin slices of Meyer lemons and freshly spinach topping. This pizza has just the right amount of spring citrus flavoring... and of course gooey melted cheese!
