The ASDA Christmas Dinner Pizza has been launched by the grocer in the UK as a new take on a classic holiday meal experience to provide customers with an alternative way to enjoy it. The pizza is characterized by its Christmas tree-shaped dough that's topped with some of the usual trimmings one would find at a holiday dinner. This includes diced chicken, pigs in blankets, stuffing balls, pork pieces and grated mozzarella before being finished with cranberry sauce that comes in a packet to allow for as much or as little as desired.
Product Development Manager of Pizzas at ASDA Kathryn Saveall spoke on the ASDA Christmas Dinner Pizza saying, "What could be better at Christmas time than more fun ways to enjoy a Christmas Dinner throughout December? We’re so excited for customers to try our version of Christmas Dinner… but this time, on a pizza! We want customers to indulge their taste buds with a slice of some festive fun!"
