Asparagus and Green Garlic Pizza

 It’s no secret I have a serious asparagus problem. Trust me of you had access to asparagus this fresh you would have a problem too!! If you are not a fan, the season is almost over so indulge me a couple weeks more. The combo of green garlic and asparagus is a match make in heaven.

10 oz thin asparagus spears, cut into 1 inch pieces
2 green garlic, shredded using the coarse side of a box grater
10 oz mozzarella cheese, shredded
olive oil
1 pizza dough

Preheat over to 500 with a baking steel or pizza stone inside.

Roll out dough. Drizzle with olive oil. Top with green garlic, cheese, and asparagus. 

Bake for 8 – 10 minutes until the crust is brown and cheese is bubbling.

Serves 4.
