All three white-sauce pizzas are built on the brand's signature thin crust with Edge to Edge® toppings. The Triple Meat Alfredo combines a velvety Alfredo base with meatballs made from a longstanding family recipe, sausage, bacon, and basil. The Mike’s Hot Honey Meaty Alfredo balances savory heritage pepperoni, sausage, and smoked provolone with a drizzle of sweet and spicy honey, while the Chicken Vegy Alfredo provides a lighter choice with sliced chicken breast, Roma tomatoes, mushrooms, and green peppers.
