Lightened up Chicken N' Veggie Alfredo Pizza

Lightened up Chicken N' Veggie Alfredo Pizza (Dairy-Free)

Ingredients
  

  • 1 recipe of prepared pizza dough or crust of choice (I used Bob's Red Mill Pizza Mix and used 1/2 dough)
  • 1 1/2 tsp olive oil, divided (or butter or ghee but is not dairy-free)
  • 1/3 of an onion, sliced into thin rings
  • a couple shakes of dried parsley, oregano and garlic powder (can use 1-2 fresh garlic cloves, and fresh herbs if desired)
  • 1/2 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 small cooked chicken breast, diced (I grilled one 4 oz breast that was seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic powder and olive oil) - omit for vegetarian
  • 3/4 cup creamy Dairy-free "Alfredo Sauce" plus more for serving/drizzling (recipe below)
  • 1/2- 1 cup Dairy-free shredded cheese - mozzarella or cheddar (I Daiya cheddar shreds since that's what I had on hand but if you aren't dairy-free feel free to use regular cheese)
  • sea salt and pepper

Instructions
 

  • Prepare dough pizza crust according to directions on package (or for your favorite or homemade crust). If using Bob Red Mills crust, have oven set to 425F.
  • Meanwhile heat 1 tsp oil/butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add onions and saute 5 minutes until soft. Add seasonings, garlic, mushrooms and broccoli and saute for another 2-3 minutes until mostly cooked through (will cook a bit more in oven).  Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Once crust has "pre-baked", spread the Cauliflower Alfredo sauce over the crust leaving about 1/2 to 1 inch edge around the outside. Brush the remaining 1/2 tsp of olive oil over the edges of the crust.
  • Top pizza with sauteed  veggie and diced chicken and evenly sprinkle with shredded cheese.
  • Bake pizza for another 13-16 minutes or until crust is cooked through and cheese is melted. Slice, drizzle with additional Alfredo sauce and enjoy!

Notes

If you are using a prepared pizza crust, skip the first step or bake according to your crust directions.
For vegetarian, omit the chicken and increase the mushrooms and broccoli to 1 cup each.
If using Bob's Red Mill pizza crust and want a vegan egg-free option, view package for flax egg directions.
