This Veggie Packed Chicken Alfredo Pizza has so many vegetables on it, it’s hard to fit them all on top! A little indulgence with lots of nutrition, this dish is worthy of place at your table on pizza night!
A while back, in my efforts to make weekly meal planning a bit easier, I wanted to turn most of my weekdays into themed dinner nights. For example, Mondays = meatless monday. That one was easy. The rest I was having a hard time coming up with.
Then I heard that many families have Friday night pizza nights. I was sold. Who doesn’t love pizza? And every week?! It went right on my calendar. I love coming up with new ways to enjoy pizza. I even have a dedicated pizza board on Pinterest. Love.
I wasn’t originally planning on using this recipe for the blog, but after making and tasting it I couldn’t help but share it with all of you! I used a jarred Alfredo sauce, but if you have the time and want to make your own sauce go for it!
Rule #1 about most of the recipes I make is you don’t have to stick 100% to the ingredients. Customize it to your likes as well as what you have in your fridge or cupboards! Really, this could be a no recipe recipe. You don’t have to use exactly the same vegetables I chose to put on my pizza. If you don’t like spinach, skip it. A fan arugula? Toss it on!
We baked our pizza on a baking sheet with a silicon mat, but feel free to use an actual pizza pan or stone if you want. Just make sure if you use a silicon baking mat, not to use metal knifes or pizza cutters to slice the pizza. We use a pizza cutter similar to this one and it works really well on the silicon mats.
