Elliot's variation
I think an asparagus version of the pizza would be delicious
and summery, especially with veg week falling in May, the
beginning of the asparagus season. I'd spread the base with
garlic cream cheese - vegetarian or vegan - then pile on cooked
asparagus, finish with some grated vegetarian hard cheese
(parmesan or pecorino style) or vegan 'cheese' and put under
the grill until brown and sizzling.

Bread sliced in half, spread with garlic butter and grill,
spread with tomato sauce mixture. Mix the grated cheese with
chopped peeled tomatoes, diced onion and herbs and spread
on top of the tomato sauce. Sprinkle with a little more cheese
and grill or bake until the cheese melts and is bubbling.

Recipe for a Satisfying Cheese-less Ciabatta Pizza
Pre-heat oven to 150 degrees
Take 1 loaf of ciabatta bread and slice in half horizontally.
Drizzle over plenty of olive oil and then spread the bread
with a thin layer of spicy chutney. (Phil used a lime, coriander
and chilli chutney on one half and tangy tomato on the other)
Halve an onion and slice thinly, place the slices on your
pizzas.
De-seed and dice ½ green pepper, ½ red pepper,
½ yellow pepper, mix them together in a bowl with a
tbsp of olive oil then divide between your two ciabatta halves.
Thinly slice a gherkin and scatter over the peppers, then
finish with a liberal sprinkling of pine-nuts and a healthy
dose of black pepper.
Bake in the oven for around 20 minutes until the peppers and
pine-nuts are nicely browned.
Finally follow Phil's example and demolish both pizzas in
a very short space of time - or - serve with a tasty salad
and some potato wedges to feed your entire family!
