Spinach Pizza

My daughter has been wanting to make a less-traditional pizza for quite some time now, and we made this pizza together today. At first she wanted a white chicken pizza, but I found a recipe that looked really good, and used ingredients I had on hand. We then adapted the recipe to our tastes. She had a blast making it, and was so proud of our creation.
I made a homemade crust, so just use your favorite recipe for that, or you can purchase a crust, like Boboli.

Spinach Pizza

2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons minced garlic
3-4 tabelspoons sundried tomato pesto
2 tablespoons fresh basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
1 unbaked pizza crust
1 tomato, sliced
handful of fresh baby spinach
3 ounces herbed feta cheese, crumbled
3 ounces plain feta cheese, sliced or crumbled

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

2. In a small bowl, combine first 7 ingredients; spread evenly over pizza crust.

3. Layer tomato and spinach on pizza, and then top with both kinds of feta.

4. Bake according to pizza crust recipe (or package if using a store-bought crust, like Boboli).
