Time 40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 thick slices bacon, cut into 1 inch pieces
1 unbaked pizza crust
1 pound shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup chopped fresh asparagus
1 cup halved cherry or grape tomatoes
1 (11 ounce) log fresh chevre (goat cheese)
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

Tips:

  • For a crispier crust, preheat your oven to the highest temperature possible before baking the pizza.
  • Use a pizza stone or baking steel to achieve an even crispier crust.
  • If you don't have a pizza stone or baking steel, place the pizza directly on the oven rack.
  • To prevent the asparagus from becoming too limp, roast it for just a few minutes before adding it to the pizza.
  • Use a variety of cheeses to create a more flavorful pizza.
  • Don't overload the pizza with toppings, or it will become soggy.
  • Bake the pizza until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
