grilled pizza

last week we had pizza for dinner. since i am one of the pickiest eaters i know, i usually make my own pizza that doesn’t involve cheese.

due to time constraints i bought the pizza dough at the store. i didn’t do anything different with it, i just rolled it a bit thicker than i would have for the pizza pan, and made it oblong instead of round. i grilled one side with nothing on it, flipped the dough, grilled it for about a minute. then i took the dough inside, topped it with my toppings, and brought it back out onto the grill to cook again for another 5 or so minutes. just until the dough started to puff up.

i was going to go a step further this time and make a pizza that didn’t involve red sauce too. so i opted to use homemade scallion hummus as the sauce, and i put some leftover grilled eggplant and some sautéed spinach and garlic on top.

it was pretty much awesome, and i don’t think i’ll ever have regular pizza again when i’m at home! i really enjoyed grilling it, and i loved my toppings. i can’t wait to try again with whatever veggies we happen to have laying around.
