Mushroom and Ham White Pizza – roasted garlic white sauce with sautéed mushrooms, cheese, and ham make for a delicious pizza. Great way to use what you already have on hand!
I love white pizza. Roasted Garlic white chicken pizza is probably my favorite all time pizza. And I am always looking for ways to use that sauce. It is a must on Homemade Ravioli as well!
My son pretty much always takes a ham sandwich to school. He uses a hot dog bun, puts in a few slices of ham and then sliced black olives. He has been doing it for years. So we always have ham in our fridge. Which means, I am always looking for fun new things to do with it!

This white pizza is a great way to use up those leftovers and odds and ends in your fridge. I don’t know about you, but there is always a little lunch mean, a couple of vegetables or some herbs in the drawers. And a pizza is such a great way to just use them up, and not have your family complain!

White pizza is such a refreshing change from tomato sauce!
My family would LOVE this pizza!
I can’t help it. I’m one of those strange people that likes pineapple on pizza. Do you think the cook time would change at all if I added pineapple to the pizza or replaced the mushrooms with pineapple?
I don’t think so. You are really cooking the crust and melting the cheese.
