Asparagus, Bacon & Herbed Cheese Pizza

mozzarella cheese

asparagus

bacon strips, cooked and crumbled

garlic-herb spreadable cheese (about 3 ounces)

red pepper flakes

Did not measure the cheese, just added it til it looked like enough.  I prefer thin spears of asparagus over thick.  Used the smaller individual sized crusts so that I could eat one that day and freeze the other for a different meal. Defrosted and reheated great!

I put this recipe on 2 mini pizzas instead of 1 large pizza.  I also used herbed goat cheese as the "spreadable cheese".  Between the two smaller pizzas, I only needed a little less than 1C of asparagus, 2 ounces of goat cheese, and about 3 tbsp of crumbled bacon.  I used real bacon bits in place of making my own bacon to save time.  I also put the pizzas in for about 7-8 minutes each.  This was SO delicious!  I can't even describe how delicious this was.  My only regret is that I had to stop eating because I was full.  5 stars, definitely making this one again!

Great pizza.  Will try with some canned chicken next time. The cheese spread didn't melt like I thought it would so maybe I will try spreading it on the crust next time.

In my family, anything with bacon is automatically good!  We didn&#39;t have spreadable cheese, but a few teaspoons of crumbled bleu cheese added plenty of flavor.  I was afraid that the asparagus wouldn&#39;t be tender with such short cooking time, but it was just fine. This is a nice twist to pizza that is quick, easy, and delicious.

Fixed this tonight for the first time and it &quot;will not&quot; be the last.  Hubby an I enjoyed this very much.  Thanks for a great pizza.

My family really liked this! Pretty quick to make, too!

wowweeee wow wow!!  my husband, son, and I are head over heels for this pizza!  I found a recipe online for garlic-herb cheese spread at http://old.post-gazette.com/food/20011018autumna.asp  The end result was absolutely scrumptious!  I&#39;m forwarding it to friends!

Oh my goodness - this is so delicious.  I lightened it up with a little less olive oil &amp; center cut bacon.  I also subbed Hidden Valley Garlic Parmesan spread for the Garlic Herb spread.  This recipe is definitely a keeper in my house!!

Just tried it. . . pretty good.  Added mushrooms &amp; sliced pepperoncini.
