This summertime twist on pizza is easy and fun; even the kids will be excited to build their own pizzas and help put them on the grill. Naan flatbread can be found in the bread or bakery sections of most grocery stores. It comes in circles or rectangles, and both work on the grill. This recipe is for a simple margherita pizza with fresh tomato and basil, but feel free to add your own favorite toppings, keeping the flatbread, sauce and cheese as a base. Note: The number of flatbreads and amount of toppings used will depend on the number and size of pizzas you plan to make.
Store-bought naan flatbreads
Canned crushed tomatoes
Sea salt, to taste
Roma tomatoes, sliced
Fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
Fresh basil, roughly chopped
Preheat grill to 325°F. While grill preheats, spread ½ cup to ¾ cup crushed tomatoes over each flatbread. Sprinkle flatbreads with sea salt according to taste. Top with Roma tomato slices, mozzarella cheese slices and fresh basil. Grill pizzas until cheese is melted and bubbly, about 10 minutes, taking care not to let the grill get too hot and burn the bottom of the pizzas. Remove from grill, let rest a few minutes, then slice and serve hot with a side salad or fresh fruit.
