The Best Sauces To Use On Pizza That Aren't Tomato

Pesto
Pesto is incredibly aromatic and flavorful, yet simple enough to let the toppings shine. Plus, it infuses your pizza with a subtle herby flavor without having to add herbs.
Alfredo
When you spoon a little alfredo sauce on top of your pizza, you will reap all of its rich, creamy, and cheesy flavor. It pairs perfectly with shrimp, arugula, and Parmesan.
Garlic & Olive Oil
An olive oil "sauce" is a good light option to pair with heavy toppings, like on a loaded veggie pizza. You can also add garlic
to give it a little more flavor.
Buffalo
Buffalo sauce will meld with the cheese and impart a spicy, buttery flavor to your pie. It’s great topped with Buffalo chicken, bacon, candied jalapeños, and ranch.
Barbecue
If you're after a sweeter pizza, try using barbecue sauce. As the sauce bakes, the sugars will caramelize, offering a tasty base for a pulled pork or jackfruit pizza.
