Grilled Pizzas
I love to have a plan. I also love how having a plan makes my life easier. It is one less thing that I have to plan or decide in the moment. Just like Taco Tuesday (I also love alliteration), the Berges Family participates in Pizza Fridays. Do I particularly love pizza? No. But I love having a plan more than I don’t love pizza. I am a practicing Lazy Genius, and deciding once is my jam.
While I don’t love to get pizza from the big chain pizza places, I do love pizza that’s made at home. I typically use The Pioneer Women’s Pizza Crust recipe, then tweak the toppings to include things my family loves. But when Costco has pita bread on sale, I stock up for these grilled pizzas. You should do the same, especially when it’s too hot for the oven!

- Bring your pizzas out to the grill and place them on the grill. I was able to place two on the grill and two on the top rack.
