Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step
2 mins

Arrange asparagus on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, season generously with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. (3 minutes)

03

Step
10 mins

Bake the asparagus in the preheated oven until tender-crisp, about 10 minutes. (10 minutes)

04

Step
3 mins

While the asparagus is baking, spread pizza sauce evenly over the pre-baked pizza crust, leaving a small border. (2 minutes)

05

Step
2 mins

Distribute the baked asparagus pieces evenly over the sauced crust. Sprinkle the crumbled blue cheese generously over the asparagus. (3 minutes)

06

Step
10 mins

Return the pizza to the center rack of the preheated oven. Bake until the cheese is melted, bubbling, and lightly golden, approximately 8 to 10 minutes. (10 minutes)

07

Step
2 mins

Remove from oven and let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Drizzle with a touch of extra virgin olive oil, if desired. (2 minutes)

For a crispier crust, pre-bake the crust for a few minutes before adding toppings.
Feel free to add other vegetables like red onion or mushrooms.
A sprinkle of red pepper flakes can add a touch of heat.
For best results, use high-quality blue cheese.
If using homemade pizza dough, adjust baking time accordingly
