Spinach and Feta-Stuffed Focaccia image

This is a CookingLight recipe. An easy dish that wraps refrigerated pizza crust dough around a savory filling and then baked to a golden brown. The filling is similar to that of the Greek classic spanakopita. I have reduced the amount of raisins as realbirdlady suggested.
