Kids starving? Want a quick and easy way to make them a snack on the grill? If so, this fast and easy pizza recipe is just what you are looking for. This pizza recipe calls for several store bought premade ingredients so it will be fast to make and there is no hassle or long prep time involved. Just assemble, grill and enjoy!

This pizza is best cooked on a gas grill with two separate levels of burners. You will be using premade pizza dough from a can and it should be kept cold until just prior to rolling out. Cold dough is easier to maneuver. You will also be using cornmeal to make the dough easier to roll and less likely to stick to the grill grates.

Ingredients:

  • 2 TBSP cornmeal
  • 1 – 10 ounce can of pre made pizza dough
  • 1-15 ounce can of pizza sauce in a jar
  • toppings: pepperoni shredded cheese, sausage, tomatoes, onions, pepper and mushroom (any anything else you like on your pizza.

Directions:

  • Preheat the grill with all burners set on high and lid down for 10 minutes
  • Scatter the cornmeal over your working surface. Open the pizza dough can and unroll and place on top of cornmeal, The dough is rectangular in shape and will need to be cut into two separate squares. Top the dough with a thin layer of pizza sauce and add the toppings of choice. Slide the pizza onto a baking tin that has no sides.
  • Back burner is on high and turn the other burners to low.
  • Slide the pizzas off the cookie sheet and onto the grill over the burners on low heat. Close the grill and cook the pizza just until the cheese melts, approximately 7 minutes. Take off the grill, cut into wedges, and serve immediately.

Yield: 2 medium sized pizzas
