Ingredients

• 1 ball (approximately 1 lb) Pizza dough
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 1 medium (sliced) Zucchini
• 1 large (sliced into strips) Red bell pepper
• 1 medium (sliced into rings) Red onion
• 2 links (sliced) Vegetarian sausage
• 1 cup Marinara sauce
• 8 oz (sliced) Fresh mozzarella
• 1 handful Fresh basil leaves
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 1 tbsp Cornmeal

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 2

Lightly brush the zucchini slices, red bell pepper strips, and onion rings with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper.

Step 3

Place the vegetables on the grill grates and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until they develop light char marks. Remove from the grill and set aside.

Step 4

Place the vegetarian sausage links on the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until heated through and slightly browned. Remove from grill and slice into thin rounds.

Step 5

Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface until it forms a 12-inch circle. Sprinkle a pizza peel or baking sheet with cornmeal and transfer the dough onto it.

Step 6

Brush the surface of the dough with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Carefully transfer the dough onto the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes with the lid closed, until the bottom is firm and lightly charred.

Step 7

Flip the dough over using tongs. Spread the marinara sauce evenly across the grilled side of the dough.

Step 8

Top the pizza with grilled vegetables, sliced sausage, and fresh mozzarella slices. Close the grill lid and cook for another 5-7 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbling.

Step 9

Remove the pizza from the grill and transfer to a cutting board. Garnish with fresh basil leaves and let rest for 2-3 minutes before slicing.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy your grilled veggie sausage pizza!
