The oil from the pesto liquifies and runs off the pizza stone or baking sheet down into your oven. It creates awful smoke and is practically impossible to clean. What a nightmare!!!!!!!!!!

Dazzle your guests, and keep the kitchen cool, by baking pizza on the backyard grill. For convenience, this recipe uses prepared pizza dough, found in most supermarkets, and pesto from a jar.

We have so much basil in our garden this year and looking for new recipes to use pesto. This one is nice and easy. I purchased pizza dough from an Italian restaurant. Cleaned the grill and oiled it. The pizza was nice an puffy in no time. In fact a little burned in some spots.So keep a close watch, we should have maybe cooked with a little less heat. Once flipped we added the tomato, feta cheese and some sliced kalmata olives. We then turned off the heat and let it sit for about 3 more minutes. We will definitely try this one again. Maybe with marinara sauce too! The crust was crunchy! YUM!





Tasted delicious and with prep and cooking, this only took us about 15-20 min. Next time we're going to try some kalamta olives and artichoke hearts! :)





This is a spectacular pizza! Despite some ups and downs with the crust (which I also made from scratch with an EatingWell recipe, this is incredibly tasty, incredibly fast, and incredibly impressive.

So easy, healthy, and very yummy! We had fresh olives we added too and it was a perfect fresh dinner.
