My favorite white pizza is crust lightly coated with garlic and olive
oil, pesto, mozzarella, parmesan, and ricotta.

I've also seen white pizza with alfredo sauce on it, and sometimes
chicken, but that's not what I call a white pizza.

The last place I went to that had white pizza didn't include the pesto.
I've had pesto on otherwise regular pizza. Excellent. So it should go
well on white pizza.

That's what I've made for myself at home as white pizza. It's fine.

Well, this isn't really what is generally meant by "white
pizza" but it is *white*. I use homemade ranch dressing
instead of tomato sauce. Then I put cheddar cheese on it.
The toppings are put *on top* of the cheese (which is why
they are called "toppings". (Sorry I just hate pizza places
that put the cheese on last! Aside from it being just plain
wrong it makes it difficult to find things I don't like and
pick them off! Long complicated story.) I usually put
several things on it like small chunks of baked potato, bell
peppers, sometimes diced fresh tomatoes, sometimes some kind
or meat (bacon, sausage, chicken, pork). I also sometimes
sprinkle it with hot red chile flakes and/or freshly ground
black pepper. (I do that before I add the cheese and toppings.

cruciferous vegetables, asparagus, pickled artichoke hearts
roasted chicken
shellfish or scallops
maybe pepper flakes
no meat used on a traditional pizza.
no tomatoes
no oregano

Frankly, no idea, but this sounds good to me. My DW doesn't like white
pizza or I'd try some combo of these. I stand to be corrected by those
fortunate enough to make one. I've seen some of these ingredients on
commercial pizza menus in my area.

Not to disagree with Leo-- but my favorite is *paper thin* slices of
tomato and some grated garlic.

[and while I like Joe's mornay sauce idea-- ricotta with a bit of
garlic spread on an oiled crust is quicker. Give it a spritz of Grana
Padano for some zing.]

Tomato? White tomato? I can't go that ricotta thing either.
