Pizza-Less Pizza? Papa John's Introduces New Pizza Bowls With Only Toppings
Papa John's is adding "Papa Bowls" to its menu as a twist by only having pizza toppings and no crust.
The Papa Bowls became available for Papa Rewards loyalty members last Monday and will nationally become available this coming Monday. They are priced at $7.99.
"We are very excited to offer Papa Bowls as a new menu category and as a new way consumers can experience our premium ingredients," Scott Rodriguez, Papa John's Senior Vice President of Menu Strategy and Product Innovation, said in a press release.
"Our signature crust continues to be a beloved favorite, but we know that sometimes customers crave something different. We want them to know we are committed to delivering on all of those cravings through our menu," Rodriquez said.
Papa John's explained that the new "Papa Bowls" are the company's attempt to attract new customers, along with the possibility that, "there could be a little bit of pizza fatigue," Rodriguez told CNN on Wednesday.
There are four different options of "Papa Bowls" to choose from: Italian Meats Trio, Chicken Alfredo and Garden Veggie, and "build your own."
The Italian Meats Trio includes signature pizza and alfredo sauces, pepperoni, sausage, meatballs, green peppers, onions, and tomatoes. There is are also three cheeses and Italian seasoning.
