Ingredients
  • 1 unbaked 12" pizza dough
  • 1 bunch of asparagus
  • ¼cup grated Parmesan
  • 4oz mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 2tsp olive oil
  • ½tsp coarse salt
  • ½tsp black pepper
  • ½tsp red pepper flake
  • ¼ red onion thinly sliced

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven 500degrees. Stretch or roll pizza dough to a 12" round. Place on a pan dusted with flour or cornmeal.
  2. Shave asparagus with a vegetable peeler and place shaving in medium bowl (do not snap off the tough ends - those are your handles for shaving). Toss shavings with olive oil, salt, pepper and red pepper flake.
  3. Top dough with parmesan and then mozzarella. Next add onion and then pile asparagus on top. Bake in oven for 10 to 15 minutes or until crust is golden and cheese begins to brown.
  4. Immediately after pulling out of oven squeeze fresh lemon juice on top. Slice and devour!
