Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 lbs asparagus
  • 1 Tbsp Vita Sana UP Alonso Picual EVOO
  • 1/4 cup finely minced red onion
  • 1/4 cup toasted pepitas
  • Sea Salt & Ground Pepper
-cilantro pepita pesto ingredients-
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1/2 cup toasted pepitas
  • 2 tsp sea salt
  • 1 jalapeno (seeded, but leave a few for some heat)
  • 1/4 tsp Healthy Life Chipotle Powder
  • one large bunch cilantro, ends cut
  • juice of two large limes
  • 1/3 cup Vita Sana UP Alonso Picual EVOO
  • splash of water
Directions
  • Heat grill or indoor grill over medium heat. 
  • Cut off dry bits of asparagus and use a vegetable peeler to gently shave the end stalks. Toss the asparagus in the olive oil with a few pinches of salt and pepper. Grill the asparagus, covered, turning a few times, for about 7-9 minutes. Time will vary based on thickness of stalks.
  • To make the pesto, pulse the garlic, toasted pepitas, and sea salt in a food processor to chop. Add the jalapeno, chipotle, cilantro, and lime juice and run the processor to combine. With the motor running, drizzle in the Ultra Premium Alonso Picual Extra Virgin Olive Oil and a splash of water. Adjust to taste. Add more chipotle for heat, citrus juice to brighten it, and water if you prefer it thinner.
  • Serve the asparagus on a generous pillow of the cilantro pesto. Garnish with the minced red onion and toasted pepitas. 
 
  The Alonso family farm is located just outside of La Estrella, a small town in the O'Higgins region of Chile. Similar to the Mediterranean, the climate is typically sunny and dry: perfect for olives. The family's work centers around multiple olive cultivars-each of which has its own ideal climate and soil type. Known worldwide for their delicate and herbaceous oils, the Alonso family is firmly committed to promptly pressing olives for maximum quality and freshness. Each oil begins with the harvest of tree-ripened olives. Within 90 minutes of picking, the olives are transported to the mill and crushed.

  • 1 Tbsp Pine Ridge Apiaries Honey
  • 1 1/2 cups flour
  • 1/2 cup warm water
  • 1 1/2 tsp active dry yeast

   TO MAKE THE DOUGH:
  • In a large bowl combine water, yeast, and honey. Mix with a spoon, then let sit until foamy, about 10 minutes. Add in the flour and ultra premium  UP EVOO stirring with a spoon until the dough comes together but is still sticky.
  • Using your hands, on a floured surface, form the dough into a ball and work the additional 1/2 cup flour into the dough if needed. 
  • Rub the same bowl with  UP EVOO , place the dough inside, and turn to coat. Cover with a towel and place in a warm place to rise for about 1 1/2 hours.
   TO MAKE THE BALSAMIC DRIZZLE:
  • Add  Vita Sana Traditional Balsamic Vinegar to a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce to a very low simmer. Cook 10-15 minutes until liquid reduced by about half and is slightly syrupy.

  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat with 1 Tbsp UP EVOO. Once hot, add mushrooms and asparagus. Cook for 5 minutes or until softened. Season with salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Once dough is ready, lightly flour a counter. Use your hands or rolling pin to roll the dough out until you have a flattened disk. 
  • Place pizza on a greased baking sheet. Use your hands to gently tug, pull and push the pizza dough to your desired shape. Drizzle at least 2 Tbsp UP EVOO over pizza dough.
  • Add chopped basil, garlic, and parmesan and spread out evenly over the pizza. Add the mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle mushrooms and asparagus over the pizza. Sprinkle a little bit more mozzarella over the top with the feta cheese.
  • Bake pizza 25-30 minutes or until cheese is melty and gooey. 
  • Add arugula and sun dried tomatoes to a bowl. Toss with 1-2 Tbsp of reserved sun dried tomato oil, toasted pine nuts, 1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar, a handful of feta cheese, and salt and pepper. Toss well and set aside.
  • Remove pizza from oven and serve arugula salad over top of the pizza. Sprinkle with crushed red pepper flakes and drizzle the Vita Sana Traditional Balsamic glaze over the pizza. Slice and serve immediately.
