I was all set to grill pizzas yesteray so I could offer them, when the skies turned dark and it started to down pour. So, I made them in the oven. (All was not lost.)
It was an experimental recipe for me. I was cleaning out my fridge and decided that many leftovers would go great on pizzas. In my freezer I had a few pocketless pitas for crusts (though I did need to buy another pack), I had a jar of sundried tomatoes that I drained, chopped in the MFP and added enough water to create a sauce with the right consistency. To that, I added spices to give it some more flavor. I used my UM to slice onions, mushrooms, and peppers then roasted them in the oven. I keep shredded cheese in the freezer, so I was good to go. (I did buy a pack of pepperoni because I didn't have enough to brown an entire pound of sausage.)
My son wanted a cheese pizza. Being a mom, I took the veggies and minced them (my MFP was full of sauce or I would have used that) and hid them under the cheese. I them made a pizza for myself and my husband and baked all of them. They were very good. I took the rest of my ingredients and made more pizzas until I ran out of ingredients and froze them before baking. Now, I have 5 personal pizzas I can pull out for a quick lunch or take to work.
I may not have been able to grill them like I wanted, but I still emptied my fridge a bit and didn't have to throw out some food.
