de Chèvre Pizza

This is by far, the best de Chèvre pizza we have ever tasted! I am not kidding. This is our favourite pizza to enjoy on the cruises.  This was my first time making it and it came out just perfect. All I had was the picture from one of the cruises that my son took of this pizza slice. I knew it has mushrooms and goat cheese in it.  Wasn't sure about the sauce or mozzarella cheese to top it off with.

 I kind of knew there is no red sauce so I need some kind of white sauce. First I thought of making Béchamel sauce and then being pressed for time as ever, I opted for bottled Alfredo sauce!

Some sautéed Portobello mushrooms with garlic and I was ready to assemble my first de Chèvre pizza.
