Grilled Spinach Alfredo Pizza


This was heaven.




Remember Amy saying she grills pizza? Last night, we gave it a try. And since our spinach is coming on, we used that in the pizza.



You can do whatever ingredients you like.



We like alfredo sauce.



I add minced garlic. If you use raw, be sure to cook it in a skillet first...unless you like raw garlic. The last time I made this, I cooked up some fresh garlic and it was very good. I also add basil or italian seasoning.



Topping ideas: grilled chicken and tomatoes a mozzerella cheese. Other ideas are mushrooms, red peppers, olives...



We also like traditional flavors with red pizza sauce (canadian bacon, pepperoni, plain cheese, etc.)



You really need to try grilling pizza. It was amazing.

Carrot Salad

1 bag shredded Carrots

1 can Mandarin Oranges, drained

1 can Pineapple tidbits, drained

½ cup Coconut

1 cup Sour Cream




*Mix all ingredients together and chill.



(This salad breaks down because of all the fruit. Does not make good leftovers.)


Really good in the summer as a side dish.

Bobby Flay's Standby

Bobby Flay's standby is the best I've had--flank steak, salt and pepper marinated in balsamic, rosemary and olive oil. I marinade it 8-24 hours, grill until medium rare and serve in many ways but my fave is as fajitas!Wrap in flour tortillas with peppers and avacado. It's our fave meal!!!

London Broil

This is a good one. You need a london broil and your favorite terriyaki sauce.



Marinate the london broil in the terriyaki sauce for about 24 hours before grilling. I like to turn mine every so often so it gets all around it well.


Grill it.



Slice it up and eat it! Fabulous!

Grilled Pizza

Here is a unique one that is pretty easy - pizza on the grill! We make our pizza dough homemade, roll it out into a pizza crust (doesn't have to be pretty, rustic is better!). First, grill one side of the crust plain. Take it off the grill, and put toppings on the grilled side. We top with veggies sauteed on the stove top, sprinkle with some feta and mozarella cheese, sundried tomatoes, whatever really! We usually don't put sauce on this pizza. Place back on the grill to grill the bottom.




This is so yummy and is a fave at out house every summer!
