Have you ever made a white sauce pizza? They're such a delicious change from a traditional, red sauce pizza. After you taste one, you'll wonder why you didn't try making one sooner. In fact, the star of this pizza is the white sauce — it's creamy, garlicky and full of parmesan cheese flavor.

For this recipe, I made a homemade pizza crust using my bread machine, and you can find that recipe here on my blog. But you can use your own favorite recipe, or even pick up a pre-made pizza crust from the grocery store. When you've got your dough all ready to go, make sure you maximize that white sauce and spread it on thick, right out to the edge of the crust.
