Preparation

Step 1

Make the Kale Pesto:

Place all the ingredients in a food processor and process until they have broken down into a fairly smooth paste. Set aside.


Slather the pesto on the pizza, then top with the blanched slices of potato and asparagus spears. Drizzle some extra virgin olive oil on top, if desired and sprinkle some salt and pepper.
