Taste of Summer

Grilled Pizza.  Yum.

Last summer, we started making pizza on the grill.

I found great instructions on this site.  It is a simple & easy step-by-step on how to make grilled pizza.  Go read them now and then make grilled pizza tomorrow night for dinner.  You won't regret it.

It is delicious.  Honestly, once you make it on the grill you will not want to have it any other way during the warm weather.

It is that good.

Today it was 84 degrees.  Very summer-like.

So grilled pizza was planned for dinner.

Tonight we had two different kinds.  Tomato/basil/mozzarella and mushroom/sausage.

E likes the tomato/basil and D likes the mushroom/sausage.  Hubby and I like both.

Dough all stretched and brushed with olive oil.  It is the olive oil side that you will place onto the grill.

Getting some of the ingredients ready while Hubby was grilling the sausage and mushrooms to get prepped for making the pizza.

One side of the dough grilled and ready to be topped with yummy toppings.

D&E being goofy while D is finishing her homework.  

Toppings all on the tomato/basil/mozzarella.  It is ridiculously delicious.

E presenting the pizza sauce that will be put on the mushroom/sausage pizza.  We are lucky, our local grocery store sells a great pizza sauce.  It is a nice simple sauce that doesn't overpower the rest of the pizza.  Perfect.

E posing while Hubby finishes putting together the pizzas.  Then off to the grill they go to finish cooking.

D getting in on the action.  I can tell that in just the last few days of her being out in the sun, her hair is starting to get lighter.  She gets the greatest blonde streaks during the summer.

The mushroom/sausage pizza all done.  Yum.

Tomato/basil/mozzarella all cooked.  So, so good.  

We have decided that with the weather getting nice we will do grilled pizza on every Thursday night.  

And we are going to venture into more toppings.  Both Hubby & I agree that an eggplant pizza of some kind should be next on the list to try.  Now to think of what to pair with the eggplant.  Hmmmmm.

potd #80.  Toppings all ready to make the tomato/basil/mozzarella pizza.  I just love these colors together.  And the flavors.  Yum-O!
