Brussel sprouts! I have been waiting for them so I could make pizza! I know it’s sounds odd, but really good. My husband who doesn’t like them much actually likes the pizza! I also had a head of broccoflower, which we like roasted and then covered in buffalo sauce and blue cheese crumbles. As long as I was making one pizza I decided to make a second one using the buffalo broccoflower.
I always make my dough from scratch, I love the feel and smell of fresh dough. We didn’t want to heat up the house, so we fired up the gas grill instead. The temperature needs to be about 375-400 degrees F. Roll out your crust to a size you are comfortable handling on the grill. (we often do individual sized crusts) Brush the crust with a little olive oil and place it oiled side down, close lid and wait 2-3 minutes, open lid, with long tongs carefully flip the crust over and cook another 2 minutes. Pull them off the grill and onto a baking sheet.
Add sauce and toppings, then back on to the grill, close lid and cook 2-3 minutes or til cheese melts. The crust will be dark and crisp. Carefully remove them with tongs and grill safe spatula (we found a giant grill spatula; see photo) to a baking sheet or cutting board, cut and enjoy!
My husband made the grand declaration, “This is looking a little healthy for pizza!” and then he ate three slices of each! Yay! Score for me, he ate two green veggies in one meal and liked it!

We made a meatless version of the Brussel sprouts grilled pizza tonight and it was fabulous. We always make our own dough, but had never considered grilling it. Thanks for the wonderful recipe!
I was excited for brussels sprouts too! I had a weird night last night and kept getting woken up by strange events, so I slept late this morning and forgot I had my pickup today! Thankfully someone from my site called me and was kind enough to wait for me to get there. I appreciate it so much! This was my second time to participate and I’ve enjoyed the big variety of beautiful fresh produce I receive for super cheap! Thanks so much for the work you guys all do.
