Four Seasons Pizza Recipe

Four seasons pizza on a stone
Kanchan Dilip
Four Seasons Pizza Recipe calls for different toppings that correspond to the four seasons. This pizza has asparagus and artichokes on one quarter of the pizza, basil, tomato, and olives on the other, mushrooms and pepper on the next quarter, and cauliflower florets on the last quarter. This recipe is based on my family's preference for different toppings on pizza.
