I have seen this Grilled Vegetable Pizza recipe in many magazines this past month. It is a add by Crisco advertising Olive Oil. This was my second attempt to grill pizza. Last year I made the whole pizza and then tried to slide it off the peel onto the grill. It wasn't very pretty! What I didn't realize was that you need to cook the crust first, then add your toppings. It made a huge difference. It was a very tasty pizza!
I love the Trader Joe's Pizza crust -- I keep them in the freezer!
1 package (8 oz) shredded four-cheese blend .
Spray cookie sheet with no-stick cooking spray. Combine 3 tablespoons Olive Oil and 2 teaspoons minced garlic and brush onto both sides of pizza crust.
Place onto hot grill for 1 to 2 minutes. Turn over and repeat.
Remove to cookie sheet.
Sprinkle cheese evenly over crust.
Arrange 1 6 oz. jar marinated artichoke hearts, drained and halved2 to 3 baby portobello mushrooms, sliced
1 small red onion, cut into 1 inch wedges
Red bell pepper strips
12 black olives, oil cured, pitted and halved
1 teaspoon fresh chopped herbs to taste
Place crust back on grill. Close cover and cook 4 to 6 minutes, or until crust is browned and cheese is melted.
Remove and sprinkle with chopped herbs.
bon appetit!
I've never cooked pizza on the grill. Will have to give it a try.

I just love a good pizza and when they are homemade like yours they are especially nice!
ReplyDeleteNothing tastes as good as homemade pizza and I should know because I am a pizza-holic.
ReplyDeleteGot caught up in the Julia quiz and almost forgot to tell you the pizza looks great. I love the choice of toppings…mmmmmmm!
ReplyDeleteWow that looks great! I have to get to Trader Joe's for some pizza crust. Nice pictures:)

Oh, this looks so good! For sure I'll have to try the Trader Joe's pizza dough. I think pizza with vegetables is probably my favorite! Thanks. :)
ReplyDeleteI was just reading my magazines this afternoon and drooled over this same recipe. You make it look great, too. I posted a real easy homemade pizza dough last week - if you are out of Trader Joe's crust.~ Robyn
ReplyDeleteOoooh! This sounds like so much fun! Pa and I often make pizza on Sunday nights, but we've never tried to grill one. I'm going to add the pizza crust to my Trader Joe's list and make a pilgrimage there soon... or maybe I'll just check out Robyn's recipe!
ReplyDeleteI have never ever tried to grill a pizza, what a fabulous idea, especially at this time of year!
ReplyDeleteYum-yum!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYUM! Can't wait to try this out!
ReplyDeleteI've been making your grilled pizza most every Sunday night since your post. Since I'm not near Trader Joe's, I've found a similar pizza dough in the bakery department at Publix. Just wanted you to know I'm enjoying your recipe... it's wonderful!
