Grilled Vegetable Pizza

I have always wanted to make pizza on the grill. I have to admit I was a little nervous to throw the dough right onto the grill. I kept envisioning the dough falling down through the grates and making a huge mess. Thankfully that didn’t happen! Whew!

Now I am wondering why I didn’t try this sooner. It was so easy and oh so yummy!

Before adding veggies and garlic to the pizza, I like to roast them in the oven with some olive oil, salt and pepper. Roast at 400 degrees for about 15 minutes. I like to put the sliced veggies right on the grill while I’m grilling the dough.

Ingredients

    • 1 package of dough, I used whole wheat found in the freezer section
    • Tomato sauce
    • Any toppings you like, I used:
      • tomatoes, red onion
      • roasted garlic
      • red pepper
      • fresh mozzarella and parmesan cheeses
      • fresh basil
      • oregano.

Directions

  1. Pre heat grill over medium to high heat.  
  2. Let dough come to room temperature. Roll out to desired thickness. Brush one side with olive oil.  
  3. Carefully place oiled side of dough onto the hot grill.  Brush olive oil onto other side of dough.  
  4. Grill for about 3 minutes and flip. Cook for another 3 minutes or until nice grill marks show.  
  5. Remove from grill and add toppings. Place back grill for a few minutes with cover closed so the cheese melts.
