This was so delicious! Tried it last night for “Meatless Monday” – prepped the crust with olive oil and garlic salt and added some red onions with the asparagus. Would definitely recommend getting the thicker asparagus if you have a choice – I ended up taking a knife to my thin little pieces! Even my fiance loved it and said he’d eat it on a night that wasn’t meant to be meatless…that means it’s GOOD!

Delicious! I’m making this for the second time tonight for guests. It has great flavor and is a wonderful way to get my picky husband to eat asparagus

This was really good. It was a pain to peel all of the asparagus since I had thin ones. But it was worth it. I wonder if a mandolin would have helped. I think next time I will try topping it with goat cheese instead. I was nervous that the asparagus wouldn’t cook properly but it did and I used loads of pepper which added to the taste. Oh I also used Ree’s dough recipe which came out great.

Wow. This was so good. It took more time to prepare than I expected because the asparagus didn’t peel very easily but it was worth it. I couldn’t find Boursin cheese so I used goat chevre instead (still rolled in herbs) and added some roughly chopped garlic cloves and sweet red onions to the top. I also used whole wheat pizza dough. I will definitely be making this again. Very healthy and very filling.

Great recipe! I kept coming back to this recipe, thinking I’d make it once I’d taken a trip to the store. This pizza compelled me to out get the ingredients; I was not let down! I added spinach, along with extra cheese. Amazing.. (Don’t skimp on the pepper, btw)

Outstanding recipe!!! I saw the recipe on the blog and HAD TO make it that night. My non asparagus eating husband ate 6 pieces. I even took the leftovers to my moms the next day and she loved it. Thank you so much!

I bake this on my pizza stone (it lives in my oven), but it really doesn’t matter what shape you make it. It tastes the same any way!

Since you’re using a rectangular baking sheet to support the pizza, why not make a rectangular pizza? They don’t have to be round – especially since you’re cutting it into little squares.

BTW, I found a mesh pizza pan (this one is round) at a restaurant supply store. This is not like the pizza pan with the holes in it, it is completely mesh. I use it in a Breville Smart Oven and it produces a very crispy crust. It’s like putting the pizza on the oven rack, but with more support. It cost just a couple of $. – very inexpensive.

This asparagus pizza sounds terrific.

I wasn’t sure of my feelings about asparagus, but after eating this, I’m a convert. This pizza is outstanding. I love addition of the garlic & herb cheese. It adds so much flavor!
