Turkey Alfredo Pizza

Description:

A longtime family favorite, this thin-crusted pizza is chock-full of flavor and nutrition, and an excellent way to use up leftover turkey during the holidays. Serve this pizza with a bowl of vegetable soup or rustic green salad for a busy weeknight meal solution. -- Edie Despain, Logan, Utah

Ingredients:

1 prebaked thin Italian bread shell crust (10 ounces)
1 garlic clove, peeled and halved
3/4 cup reduced-fat Alfredo sauce, divided
1 package (10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 cups shredded cooked turkey breast
3/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

Directions:

Place the crust on a baking sheet; rub with cut sides of garlic. Discard garlic. Spread 1/2 cup Alfredo sauce over crust.

In a small bowl, combine the spinach, lemon juice, salt and pepper; spoon evenly over sauce. Top with turkey; drizzle with remaining Alfredo sauce. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and pepper flakes.

Bake at 425 degrees for 11-13 minutes or until heated through and cheese is melted.
