Two of America's favorite comfort foods are about to collide with the debut of Papa John's new Spinach & Tomato Alfredo Pizza. With the creaminess of alfredo sauce and the savory touch of juicy tomatoes, the new pizza is like a bowl of pasta you can eat with your hands.

Papa John's new Spinach & Tomato Alfredo Pizza is a handcrafted specialty pizza that tops a crispy crust with a creamy two-cheese Alfredo sauce, a blend of fresh cream, Parmesan, and Romano cheeses, fresh baby spinach, Roma tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, and a sprinkle of Italian seasoning. For those who want to truly savor the toppings, the pizza also comes on a thin crust.

Vegetarian-friendly and perfect for summer, you'll want to try this new pizza before it disappears from the menu.
