I think the first time I had mentioned it to him, I got one of those faces that read...."wth? what kind of an idea is that! how the....why? You're insane."
The next time I brought it up, he wasn't in the mood for pizza.
The last time I brought it up, it wasn't a question. I said...We're going to grill pizza tonight and poof. no fuss, no muss. Thank God cuz I had this homemade pizza dough in the freezer and I really needed to use it. If you wanna check out the pizza dough recipes --->click here<--- Plus my friend Michele over at MyItalianGrandmother had done a really sweet blog about her pizza grilling experience...and well....I had the "pizza grilling bug".
Now...it was an interesting experience. I wasn't as successful as Michele is but it's worth perfecting. Thats for sure!!
We basically got the pizza dough ready...
And then flipped it onto the grill....
Once the first side had some nice grill marks, it was time to flip it over and add the goodies. Only I didn't bring all my fixins outside so I was going to take the crust into the kitchen...load it up and bring it back out.
My first crust....well....it bit the dust. Literally. Some how when I umm...put the crust back onto the plate, it just kept right on going. I was really irritated. I should've snapped a picture of it. But my mind was stuck on..."Crap, now I don't have enough dough to make enough pizza for all of us. Which one of us is going to bed without dinner tonight?"
Anyways....the next couple were successful. It all happened so fast that I didn't have time to take more photos...but here's one of the "clean" pizzas
It's a little rustic looking but man was it good! I think next time I'll use a thicker crust. But not too thick. If you want to know how to really do it up right, seriously check out Micheles blog (link above). Once I master this technique, I'll go into more detail.
Anyways as it turned out....I still had one ball of dough left (nope....no one went to bed hungry that night after all)...
hmmm...what to do with one lonely ball of pizza dough?
Why...you flatten that baby out and stick some soft scrambled eggs on half of it...
Then you add some mushrooms, onions and bacon...
And some avocado and tomato....
And some cheese....
and then fold it and crimp the edges...
Pop it into a 350 oven for about 30 mins or so until golden brown....
And have an amazing breakfast!!!
