Well Monday night was pizza night on my menu and I had a pre-made pizza crust still in my freezer (yes, from scratch). I wanted to have a "white" pizza this time and usually do a heavy cream portabella garlic pizza but had not portabella's. No fresh mushrooms left at all- insert boo-hoo. So I decided to make my homemade Alfredo sauce, left over spinach and chicken from the night before; also a can of mushrooms was lurking in the cabinet and we love mushrooms. There is still about 6 ounces of chopped green onion left in my freezer from the garden that I thought needed to top this pizza along with about 5 ounces of freshly shredded mozzarella cheese and a couple extra shakes of Parmesan cheese. It turned out fantastic and my husband raved- he didn't even need ranch dressing for dipping! Ha ha ha!
Here is the recipe for the Alfredo sauce (food for thought, if you make this for pasta and think you can reheat this sauce, it will separate)
1 Pint heavy cream
1 stick of margarine
2 tbs cream cheese
3/4 c. Parmesan cheese
1 tsp garlic powder
In a large sauce pan melt margarine and add cream cheese to melt. Next add heavy cream while constantly stirring, Parmesan cheese and garlic powder.
I spread 3/4 of this recipe on my large pizza crust then added the cooked spinach, mushrooms and cooked chicken on my pizza. Then I topped it with the mozzarella, Parmesan cheese and green onion.
We've been reheating this for a couple days now and it is so yummy!
