We had a spinach stuffed pizza years ago at an Italian restaurant that was so good we were thinking about it yesterday. But it had ricotta cheese in it. so I was trying to find a recipe that didn't have ricotta cheese in it. But no one had one posted anywhere that I could find so I came up with this using tofu to replace the ricotta. and it turned out so good. My husband wants me to make it again
