For a crispier pizza, bake on a pizza stone. A pizza stone is a heavy, round plate that acts like the brick bottoms of some restaurant pizza ovens. For best results, put the pizza stone on the lowest oven shelf.
Preheat the oven to 400 F.
Lightly coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
In a small bowl, add the asparagus, tomatoes and pepper. Add the garlic and toss gently to coat evenly. Arrange the French bread on the prepared baking sheet. Add 1/4 cup of the pizza sauce and 1/4 of the vegetable mixture to each section. Sprinkle each section with 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese.
Bake until the cheese is lightly browned and the vegetables are tender, about 8 to 10 minutes.
Serve right away.
