The secret to a grilled pizza is having all your ingredients ready to go before you head out to the grill. Make it a meal: Toss the extra black beans, diced tomato and some avocado with prewashed salad greens and Cilantro-Lime Vinaigrette and dinner is on the table in no time.
Makes 6 servings
ACTIVE TIME: 30 minutes
TOTAL TIME: 30 minutes
EASE OF PREPARATION: Easy
1 plum tomato, diced
1 cup canned black beans, rinsed
1 cup fresh corn kernels (about 2 ears)
2 tablespoons cornmeal
1 pound prepared whole-wheat pizza dough
1/3 cup barbecue sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella, preferably smoked mozzarella
1. Preheat grill to medium.
2. Combine tomato, beans and corn in a medium bowl. Sprinkle cornmeal onto a large baking sheet. Stretch the dough into about a 12-inch circle and lay it on top of the cornmeal, coating the entire underside of the dough.
3. Transfer the crust from the baking sheet to the grill. Close the lid and cook until the crust is puffed and lightly browned on the bottom, 4 to 5 minutes.
4. Using a large spatula, flip the crust. Spread barbecue sauce on it and quickly sprinkle with the tomato mixture and cheese. Close the lid; grill until the cheese is melted and the bottom of the crust is browned, 4 to 5 minutes.

To Philip in NV: The recipe says "Makes 6 servings" so divide the pizza into 6 pieces and Voila!

As usual the authors provide the calorie count and say the usual "PER SERVING"
OK-I GIVE -- HOW BIG IS A SERVING? IS IT THE WHOLE PIZZA? ONE SLICE? 2 SLICES. 1/2 of the pizza. Come on and give a hint when you publish something like this. Ya know serving size. How many grams = one serving?
Phillip, Carson City, NV |
Duh!! Six servings? must mean one serving is one slice. Anyone tried to cook this in the oven instead of on a grill?

A good change of pace.

Where do you buy whole-wheat pizza dough?
Jenny, New York, NY |
Since I couldn't find the prepared whole-wheat dough I made my own.
1 pound prepared whole-wheat pizza dough: takes 2 hours 5 minutes in my bread machine, dough cycle.
1 cup 80 degree Water
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup whole wheat flower
1 1/2 cups bread flower
1 teaspoon active dry yeast
We added diced onion, Mexican oregano and fresh cilantro to the toppings.

This was excellent. We used a whole wheat Boboli and it came out just fine. Great smoky flavor.
