Ingredients

1 lb prepared pizza dough, preferably whole-wheat
2 strip bacon
¾ cup sliced shallot
1 lb asparagus, trimmed, cut into 2-inch pieces
4 large egg
¼ tsp shredded extra-sharp cheddar
¼ tsp freshly ground pepper
1 cup shredded extra-sharp cheddar

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 500°F. Coat a large rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.

2. Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface to about the size of the baking sheet (see Tip). Transfer to the baking sheet. Bake until crisped on the bottom, about 8 minutes.

3. Meanwhile, cook bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until crisp. Drain on a paper towel. Add shallots to the pan and cook, stirring often, until beginning to brown, about 2 minutes. Add asparagus and cook, stirring, until beginning to soften, 2 to 3 minutes more.

4. Spread the vegetables over the crust and crumble bacon on top. Whisk eggs, salt and pepper in a medium bowl until combined; slowly pour over the vegetables, trying not to let any run off the crust. Sprinkle the pizza with cheese. Bake until the eggs are set and the cheese is melted, 8 to 10 minutes.

Tip: Some prepared dough resists being stretched. If your dough is too springy, let it rest for about 15 minutes, then try rolling it out again.
