White Pizza Sauce

tiersofjoy's Note:

We love homemade pizza, but get bored with the same old tomato sauce version. This white sauce is a nice change of pace. Its great for a chicken pizza and is also a good pasta sauce.

I ate this and it was good.

Just realized I never reviewed this. I've made this a couple of times now. I use it to make a Steak and Cheese pizza by quickly sauteeing some onion, green pepper, mushrooms and very thin sliced steak. I omit the Basil and season the sauce with just a hint of Oregano and spread over Bread Machine Pizza Dough With Whole Wheat Flour. Add toppings and a small amount of Mozzarella and a little more Parmigiann-Reggiano. Makes a delicious pizza!

so yummy - just keep mixture on the stove until the cheese melts or it doesn't thicken (i didn't understand this, and had to turn the stove back on to make it thicken up), but, turned out great in the end. thanks for posting
