Healthy Pizza on the Grill
I used to have this fear of making my own pizza crust. I know it can be so much healthier but I never know where to start.
I have finally put together a recipe I really like. I hope you will too.
The dough is not completely whole wheat. I partly used bread flour so the crust could be soft yet crispy and the dough elastic when rolling out. There are only a few ingredients, but the taste is amazing. It might not be a traditional pizza dough. When you are trying to lose weight, you still want your food to taste good and real.
My choice of toppings were grilled asparagus and mushrooms, tomato slices, asadero cheese and fresh basil.

Print recipe
| Serves | 4 |
| Dietary | Vegetarian |
| Misc | Child Friendly, Pre-preparable, Serve Hot |
Ingredients
- 3/4 cups Whole wheat flour
- 1/2 cup bread flour
- 1/2 cup soy flour
- 1 tablespoon honey (agave can be substituted)
- 1 tablespoon flaxseed (ground)
- 1 packet higly active dry yeast
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup warm water (at 120 degrees F.)
Directions
| Step 1 |
 Mix water, yeast and honey (or agave) in a small bowl. I had to warm the water up for a few seconds in the microwave in order for it to reach 120*F. Let sit for 10-12 minutes while you mix flours. |
| Step 2 | Mix all of the flours, flax seed and salt in a large bowl. Remove 1/4 cup of mix and set aside. |
| Step 3 |
 Add flour mix to water mix slowly using a rubber spatula. Keep mixing until most of the liquid is absorbed. Form into a ball. Knead for about 2 minutes on lightly floured surface using some of the reserved flour mix. |
| Step 4 | In large bowl you were using, spray it with cooking spray and place dough in it. Cover and let sit for 25 minutes in a warm place. Maybe an oven or microwave that is off. |
| Step 5 |
 Place pizza stone on grill. Preheat grill to 400*F. Roll out pizza dough on lightly floured surface until thin. Place dough on stone and grill for 5 minutes on each side. This helps hold the toppings very well. |
| Step 6 |
 Add pizza sauce and choice of toppings. Cook for another 20 minutes. Carefully transfer to pan. Slice and enjoy! |

That pizza looks and sounds so good! I have been wanting to try grilling a pizza lately. I have seen several floating around the web. Unfortunately for my area we are slammed with summer storms right now so grilling is not possible
Oh no, I hope you can grill soon. Summer is almost over.
Yum! I love that this can be easily veganized. I shall try
I can’t wait to see what you come up with, like always!
I have yet to grill a pizza. Will be trying soon before the summer is over!
It was my first time and surprisingly very simple!
What an amazing idea! That sounds so good!
You need to try it Nikki. You will not be dissapointed.
