Grilled Vegetable Pizza

Ingredients

• 1 ball Homemade or Store-bought pizza dough
• 2 bell peppers (mixed colours in nice)
• 2 Portobello mushrooms (stem removed and thickly sliced)
• 1 medium red onion (sliced in half lengthwise, then thickly sliced)
• 1 1/2 cups Pizza sauce or hand-crushed canned plum tomatoes (seasoned with salt, pepper and oregano and simmered down)
• Goat cheese or feta cheese (crumbled)
• Balsamic glaze (for drizzling)
• Chopped fresh parsley (for colour)

Instructions

1. 1

   Pre-heat your BBQ (or grill pan) to medium-high. Place cut vegetables in perforated grilling basket and grill until soft and starting to brown. Remove from BBQ and set aside while you assemble your pizza. At the same time, hand-crush tomatoes from a can of good plum tomatoes. Season with salt, pepper and some oregano and simmer on the stove-top over medium-low heat until thickened. Set aside to cool a bit. (*Note: if you're in a hurry, you can skip the simmering and just place some hand-crushed tomatoes right on to your pizza dough).

2. 2

   Pre-heat oven to 500° F. with pizza stone on middle rack (if using). Press out your pizza dough and spoon on tomatoes or pizza sauce. Top with grilled vegetables and top with crumbled goat cheese. Bake in pre-heated oven for 10-15 minutes, until crust is golden and toppings are hot.

3. 3

   Top with a drizzle of balsamic glaze and sprinkle with chopped parsley, if desired.
