I first came across this simple and flavorful white pizza sauce from My Food Storage Deals, where it was featured in a creative twist on pizza—Fettuccine Alfredo Pizza. I’ve since adapted the original recipe to suit my own tastes, and it’s quickly become a go-to base for all kinds of pizza creations. The beauty of this sauce is its versatility: it pairs beautifully with whatever toppings you love, from savory meats to fresh veggies.

The pizza I made with it featured grilled chicken, crispy bacon, and thinly sliced red onions—a combination that was absolutely delicious and a refreshing change from the usual red sauce. The creamy, garlicky base adds a rich flavor that elevates every bite, and the best part? You can whip it up in minutes using ingredients you likely already have in your kitchen.

To make this sauce, all you need is a base of ranch dressing, then mix in a sprinkle of dried basil, a dash of garlic powder, and a handful of shredded Parmesan cheese. It’s creamy, savory, and packed with flavor—definitely a keeper in my recipe box!

Instructions for White Pizza Sauce Recipe

In a small bowl, stir together the ranch dressing, dried basil, garlic powder, and shredded Parmesan cheese until everything is well combined and creamy. Once your sauce is ready, spread it evenly over your prepared pizza crust—I used a 14-inch crust, and this amount was just right to cover it generously without overwhelming the toppings.

This sauce tastes rich, flavorful, and ready in minutes—perfect for busy weeknights or when you’re craving something a little different than the usual marinara. Now all that’s left is to pile on your favorite toppings and bake!

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this sauce ahead of time?
Absolutely! You can mix the sauce and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Just give it a quick stir before using.

What kind of ranch dressing works best?
Any creamy ranch dressing will do, but if you have a favorite brand or homemade version, go with that! Just avoid thinner dressings—they can make the sauce too runny.

Can I double the recipe for more pizzas?
Definitely. Just double (or triple!) the ingredients depending on how many pizzas you’re making. It scales easily.

Is this sauce good for a dipping sauce too?
Yes! It makes a delicious dip for breadsticks, veggies, or even chicken tenders. You might want to make a little extra just for snacking.

What cheeses pair well with this sauce on pizza?
Mozzarella is a classic, but try adding fontina, provolone, or even a sprinkle of feta for extra flavor.
