Grilled Breakfast Pizza


This was a pretty cool recipe because it was something different I would not normally have thought of. Admittedly, this was the second try of this recipe, our first try turned into Grilled Nacho Pizza. We tried in that one to crack eggs right on top of the pizza, but they wouldn't cook. Scrambling the eggs before adding them worked well this time. I thought this pizza tasted a lot like an egg and cheese bagel sandwich, which was really good.

Ingredients:
-refrigerated pizza dough
-5 eggs
-1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
-2 oz feta cheese
-olive oil


Scramble the eggs before you start.

Rub some olive oil onto the bottom of the pizza crust
before putting it on the grill so it doesn't stick.
Cook for about 2-3 minutes on one side before flipping.
I was nervous about using the raw pizza dough because I wasn't sure it would cook the whole way through and I thought it might fall through the grates of the grill, but this actually worked great, it got to be the perfect amount of crispiness. I put the grill on low heat though so the bottom wouldn't get burnt.

Top with the scrambled eggs.
Top with shredded cheese.
I added a little bit of crumbled feta.
Cook for another 6-7 minutes. I cut into a piece of mine
to check to see if the inside was cooked, I needed to put
in back on the grill once for about 2 minutes to get the inside
cooked, but eventually cooked pretty evenly.


I like this a lot because the ingredients are flexible, you can add other ingredients that you like or whatever you have on hand in your kitchen. I added feta on only half of the pizza because I like but my brother doesn't, so it was really easy to customize for each person even.

Grilled Nacho Pizza


This combination of jalapenos and cheese tasted just like eating nachos at a baseball game. Originally, this started out as us trying to make a breakfast pizza, but the jalapeno and cheddar combination, along with the crispy bread was good without any breakfast type ingredients. 

Other Grilling Wednesday Recipes: BBQ Maple Balsamic Burger with Sharp Cheddar, Grilled Pineapple with Honey, Cinnamon and Lime, Grilled Caprese Sandwiches, Grilled Spicy Pepper Poppers, and Red White and Blue Burger.

Ingredients:-Pre-made pizza crust
-1 cup bechamel sauce (we made it in a previous recipe here)
-1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
-1 jalapeno, sliced
-Other desired toppings

Rub the grill grates with a little bit of olive oil to prevent the crust from sticking.
Cook one side on the grill until it is a little brown, about 5 minutes.
Flip it over, and spread the bechamel sauce over.
Sprinkle with cheese.
Add jalapenos.
Cook until the cheese melt and the bread is crispy, about 5-6 minutes.

The jalapenos made this pretty spicy, the flavor was great. This was pretty easy to make, other than making the bechmel, there wasn't much prep or cleanup, which is great for a good snack on the grill.

Pizza Rolls


900+ page views, thanks so much everyone!

Working and going to school is pretty much a full time job so whenever I can find a quick and easy dinner that doesn't have any ingredients I'm all for it. Here's an easy work (or school night recipe).

Ingredients:
-3 cans biscuits (10 biscuits per can)
-Block of colby jack cheese
-1 beaten egg
-Italian seasoning
-Garlic powder
-1 jar marinara sauce

Gather your ingredients. 

Slice the cheese into 28 slices. 

Open the cans of biscuits and flatten them out.

Place cheese in the center (you can add other toppings if you'd like I was trying to keep it simple).

Fold the biscuit over the cheese.

Place in a greased 13x9 pan, you don't need a big gap in the middle...my boyfriend and I were trying to keep our very different toppings separated.

Brush with the egg and herbs. Bake at 350 for 18-20 minutes.



Serve with a side of marinara. 

Dip in the marinara sauce and enjoy.

Delicious.
The pizza rolls were warm and cheesy with just the right amount of herb topping for extra flavor. My boyfriend has deemed these his new favorite recipe from the blog and while they make a good dinner recipe when you're looking for a quick meal they would also make a great party appetizer.

Garlic Bread Pizza


Pizza Hut has recently been advertising their new Garlic Bread Pizza  and it looks great! However, it also looks like it would be easy to make at home which would save a trip to Pizza Hut and about $9.00.

Ingredients:
-Frozen Garlic Bread Slices
-Tomato Sauce
-Mozzarella Cheese
-Toppings



Preheat oven to the temperature indicated by the back of the Garlic Bread box -- mine was 425.


Place garlic bread on a pan lined with foil.
Spread sauce onto the frozen pieces of bread.

Add cheese and toppings.
Bake. The bread box recommended baking the bread for four to five minutes -- I baked the pizza for about six or seven.

Serve.


Reviews I saw for Pizza Hut's Garlic Bread Pizza said that the pizza didn't have a strong garlic flavor. These pizza's didn't have a strong garlic flavor either, but the subtle flavor was good. The crust was crunchy, but the  center was chewy. This is an easy dinner or an easy party appetizer.
