Chicken Alfredo Pizza

jkm.11.18.'s Note:

I made this for my husband as he LOVES Olive Gardens Chicken Alfredo Pizza, and I thought it would be a nice change. I hope you enjoy it! The Dough recipe is from Bread Machine Magic, and does require a Bread Machine, but feel free to use whatever dough you prefer! The sauce is my Easy Chicken Alfredo, a half recipe of sauce is enough for 3 pizza's, remaining sauce can be kept in the fridge in an airtight container for up to two weeks.

This was a bit rich for my taste, but my kids really loved it

Wow! Great tasting homemade pizza! In the past we have bought pre-made pizza dough and baked it ourselves, but was never happy with the taste. However this pizza dough is light, airy and tasty. Since all oven temperatures are different, I had to add 6 more minutes to the second cooking time. Thanks for posting. Made for PAC Fall 2009.
