  3. I’ve never figured out how to gleek. Always wanted to…here’s how. Thanks, internet.

  14. You don’t want to see me after 4 glasses of wine. Well, maybe you do.

Shaved Asparagus Prosciutto Pizza

Shaved Prosciutto & Asparagus Pizza with EGG! Find the recipe on Shutterbean.com!

I’m kind of wishing I made this for Easter Brunch. Maybe next year?

Maybe I can just make up for that oversight and make this for the during of Spring?

Too much? Maybe not enough.

Shaved Prosciutto & Asparagus Pizza with EGG! Find the recipe on Shutterbean.com!

This Shaved Asparagus & Prosciutto Pizza has a secret ingredient.

Below the shaved asparagus, the creamy melted mozzarella and the crispy bits of prosciutto lies a very thin layer of grainy mustard.

Shaved Prosciutto & Asparagus Pizza with EGG! Find the recipe on Shutterbean.com!

It adds a nice little sharpness to the pizza. A good tang, if you will. I can’t wait to have leftovers tomorrow for breakfast because pizza for breakfast is bonkers…especially when eggs are involved.

Shaved Prosciutto & Asparagus Pizza with EGG! Find the recipe on Shutterbean.com!

Or maybe we can change our view and have breakfast for dinner? Totally suitable for any meal of the day. #putaneggonit
