Yes you can grill pizza-

 

this simple meal can be quick and nutritious especially with good topping choices and a salad to acompany it.

For those with gluten sensitivity- you can find gluten free pizza dough as a substitute.

 

to start-

spray the grill with a olive oil spray–

 

Prepare your dough- I buy a whole grain dough from whole foods but Trader Joe’s has pizza dough as well.  Roll out the dough

 

and prepare your toppings-

 

Light your grill- I use the highest setting to get the gas grill nice and hot.

 

Place the dough on a hot grill and turn the grill down to low.  Let the dough cook it will bubble and bake quickly with a spadula check for the desired crust.  Flip the dough and immediatley put your prepared toppings on. Close grill and let cook for 3-5 minutes.

 

note- I usually will saute or cook some of the toppings especially if the 3-5 minute cooking time is not going to cook them enough.

some combinations

 

artichoke hearts- pesto, feta cheese and olives.

mushrooms, onions, asparagus all sauted before and some asiago cheese with a drizzle of olive oil and lemon at the end.

crumbled blue cheese and fig

sloppy joe pizza- Pizza sauce- sauted lean ground meat (turkey or beef ) with onions and garlic and shredded cheese.
