Grilled Asparagus Pizzas image

Tired of pepperoni pizza? When we have the grill going, we like to make this recipe. The chewy from-scratch crust is topped with pizza sauce, mozzarella cheese, asparagus and ham. We love pizza and when it's made on the grill, it's even better. -M. Woods Springfield, Missouri

I'm not a big fan of asparagus, but I loved this pizza. The asparagus is roasted until it's slightly caramelized and has a great flavor.
