Grilled Pizza

This was probably the easiest thing I've ever made and my Mom said this was the best pizza she has ever eaten!!!

Pizza Crust (makes 4)

4c. flour
1 1/2 tsp. active dry yeast
1 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
1 1/2 c. ice cold water
2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil

Mix first 3 ingredients in a mixer with hook attachment until blended. Drizzle oil and water in a slow steady stream. Mix on low for 3 minutes, then high for 5 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 1 1/2 - 2 hours. Punch dough down, shape into large ball and cut into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and place on a lightly greased cookie sheet. Cover with a damp towel and let stand in a cool place for 1 hour.

Once the dough is ready - stretch it out and put on your toppings!!! I used tomato/basil sauce, provolone cheese, shredded Italian cheese, fresh tomato slices, torn basil and spinach, baby bella mushrooms and grilled onions; topped off with salt and pepper -(of course!) As far as toppings go, the possibilities are endless - use whatever you like!!!

Place onto well greased, preheated grill and grill on medium with lid closed for about 10-15 minutes.

After running 20 miles this morning - this was the perfect way to end the day!!! I did two of my favorite things today; long runs and grilling! As always...got to eat 'n run!
