Directions
If asparagus is not available, green beans make a good substitute.
[Use round pizza crust]
On baking sheet, sprinkle pizza base with half of the fontina cheese.
Trim and cut asparagus in 2-inch pieces.
Set aside.
In large skillet, heat oil over medium heat; cook garlic and onion, stirring occasionally, for about 6 minutes or until softened.
Add red pepper, 2 tablespoons of the basil, and hot pickled pepper (if using); cook for 3 minutes.
Add asparagus; cook for 3 minutes or just until bright green.
Season with pepper.
Spoon evenly over pizza base; sprinkle with remaining fontina cheese.
Bake in 400℉ (200℃) (200C) oven for 15 to 20 minutes or just until cheese is bubbly and melted.
Sprinkle with remaining basil.
Cut into wedges.
