Heffys Meatball Pizza

Sunday, September 20th, 2009

Would you like to try something a little different on the grill? Here is a great idea that will be a hit with the kids as well; grilled Heffys Meatball Pizza.

Ingredients:
2 cups all purpose flour
1 pkg. (1/4 oz.) quick rise yeast
1/ tsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
3/4 cup warm water
1 tsp olive oil
20 (or so) frozen Italian meatballs
1/2 cup Heffys BBQ sauce
1/4 cup apricot preserves
2 cups shredded cheese (whatever suits you best)
1/4 cup sliced green onions (optional)

* In a large bowl, combine the flour, yeast, sugar and salt. Add water and oil; mix until a soft dough forms. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6 minutes. Cover and let stand for 15 minutes.

* Meanwhile, cook the meatballs according to the directions on the package. Cut the meatballs in half and in a large bowl, combine with your favorite flavor of Heffys BBQ sauce and stir to coat. If a 1/2 cup of Heffys is not enough; feel free to use more!

* Divide dough into fourths. Roll each portion into a 6 inch wide circle. Coat the grill rack with cooking spray before starting the grill.

* Grill dough, covered, over medium heat for 1-2 minutes or until the crust is lightly browned. Remove from the grill and layer the grilled side of each pizza with meatball mixture, cheese and onions. Return pizzas to the grill and cover cooking 4-5 minutes or until the curst is lightly browned and cheese is melted.

So quick and easy and very tasty!

Enjoy
