Sunday Salad

I must admit that this is a major comfort food for me. Quite often when my husband is away on travel I'll make it for supper {or lunch} numerous times as I just can't seem to get enough.


This "recipe" can be as easy or as intricate as you like. In my family we've come to really enjoy pizza on the grill. The flavor is amazing and the options are endless. To be honest, I don't think we have ever made the same combination twice and we've been doing this for years! I've purchased frozen pizzas at Trader Joe's before and used them as my base when I was busy or in a rush. The Mediterranean pizzas are my favorite but that is a personal preference. Any would work nicely.


This is the recipe I used in the photos. Give it a try; I know you'll be hooked ;)




Pizza Salad


Pizza
Pizza dough {I use Trader Joe's}
4 cloves of garlic pressed {use the amount you like}
5 tbsp. olive oil
*Combine the garlic and oil for the "sauce"
Handful of baby spinach
1 cup of fresh mozzarella cut into thin slices
2 medium tomatoes sliced
Roasted red and yellow peppers
1 grilled chicken breast sliced


Salad
Mixed greens {amount depends on how big of a salad you desire}
Chopped fresh yellow, orange and red peppers
Roughly chopped tomatoes
Dressing of choice
Toss together and add dressing. Let sit while pizza is cooking


Place tiles or stone on grill and heat to low temperature. I divided the dough into 3 small balls for three pizzas. Place dough on grill tiles and cook just until slightly done. Flip the dough and layer the ingrediants starting with the cheese, spinach, tomatoes, chicken, and finally roasted peppers. Remove from grill and let cool just slightly. Cut pizza into manageable slices so that it isn't too difficult to cut once served. Add tossed salad to top and again let it sit for a few minutes so that the lettuce begins to wilts.
