That actually does not sound too bad, except that I wonder if asparagus will fit in the flavor profile.

Asparagus is ideal for White Pasta. Vegy's that make the dish appear as Italian Flag are most desired however.
Asparagus is the Green - Pasta is the White and it needs fresh sliced tomatoes for the Red.
Of course Red makes it 1/3 American.

LOL Italians do not choose their ingredients based on looking like the Italian flag! That is ridiculous! They choose based on flavor.

Italian Pizza The Red, White and Green represent the Italian flag,
Since it originated in Italy, it's no surprise that pizza is traditionally made with simple ingredients: dough, tomato sauce, cheese and basil. Not only are these ingredients usually fresh when made in Italy, but the red, white and green represent the Italian flag,
So pizza is pretty patriotic. The pizza itself has a very thin, light crust, and usually a thin layer of sauce and cheese. The dough is baked until the edges puff up and the bottom is a golden brown, making it light and crispy (i.e. you could eat an entire pizza and not even feel it... pretty cool huh?

Jesus christ no
I ate a lot of italian pizza last year and its still filling as fuck. I think only once i managed to eat more than a quarter (i think like 6-8" diameter ish, they were small)
Also the tricolour first appeared on a national level after the unification of italy in 1861. I highly doubt a newly formed kingdom would design what would become known as its signature dish to represent its new flag.especially considering that civil discontent led to the disbanding of the kingdom and formation of a republic in like 80 years.
And thats ignoring that pizza has a history going back millennia.

Ugh i found what your ill-researched blog post is referring to.
> An often recounted story holds that on June 11, 1889, to honour the Queen consort of Italy, Margherita of Savoy, the Neapolitan pizzamaker Raffaele Esposito created the "Pizza Margherita", a pizza garnished with tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil, to represent the national colours of Italy as on the Flag of Italy.
That's just the margherita. Not every fucking pizza ever.

You dear lady are very tiny example of Homo sapiens.
"As far as we know, the first tomatoes to make it to Europe were brought by the Spanish Conquistadors from South America (Peru, specifically) in the early to mid-sixteenth century. The fruit was called “tomatl.” The first written account of a tomato in Italy dates to 1548 and it was in Tuscany."

Naples has this absolutely amazing deep fried pizza. There's no dough besides the thin layer of batter which fries and puffs up and is full of toppings and cheese

Ok but the pizza and the flag thing...get with the program people. It happens whether you want it to or not.
@previous (chill dog !!81dzJNNYL)
The cheese is white and the toppings are green. The sauce being red completes the flag. Thank you.

No sauce means it isn't pizza. That's like saying you are spaghetti and meatballs but instead of meatballs it was shrimp. It's just a different dish, sorry.
