Prosciutto Wrapped Asparagus with Goat Cheese Pizza

Why I make pizza? It’s so delicious.

When do I make pizza? Weekly

How do I make pizza? Just look in the fridge for inspiration

It’s so secret that I love pizza. I’ve made many pizza varietieshere, here and even pizza cupcakes .  After making Prosciutto Wrapped Chicken in Lemon Sauce with Capers I had some Prosciutto left over and thought I’d wrap it around Asparagus and make myself a pizza.

I just about ate the whole pizza it was so delicious.

Fresh pizza dough is available at four local stores, I don’t make the dough as much as I used to. It really is a huge time saver.

  1. Great looking healthy pizza! I don’t make my own pizza dough all the time either. There’s an Italian store in the city and we always pick up a few batches of their home-made dough. I prefer it over mine right now actually and love that there is always some in the freezer!

  2. Diane, you hit the pizza jackpot with this one, This is one great pizza, I would love some right now. This is a gourmet pizza~

  3. Okay, I am going to have to say that the idea of putting the prosciutto-wrapped asparagus on the pizza is totally inspired. Gorgeous!

  4. What a pretty and creative idea for a pizza topping. I should try making pizza at home once in a while, can’t remember the last time I made a pizza! Thanks for your inspiration and beautiful photos;-)

  5. Oooh, that looks so delicious! I love prosciutto wrapped asparagus and this is such a clever way to use it. Bravo!
