Greek Pizza
I hope you guys aren't tired of me posting pizza recipes, because they are so much fun to make and so delicious!!
I totally fell in love with this pizza! I had picked out a recipe, but modified it slightly. The original recipe was to cook the pizza on the grill, which I was super excited about. I recently bought a pizza pan for the grill and have been anxiously waiting to use it. However, the night that I made this pizza, the clouds decided to roll in and it started raining about 20 minutes before I was going to start the grill. Geesh! The radar didn't look promising, and I had already made the dough, so I ended up fixing the pizza in the oven.
This pizza was so incredible! It was so full of flavor and all of the ingredients paired so perfect together. As I said, I modified the recipe some to make it my own, so the directions that I list below will be what I personally did based off of the recipe. One thing I changed that I thought added a lot of flavor was making the balsamic reduction to be drizzled on top of the pizza. Amazing!! This pizza was quite delicious and I highly recommend you make it yourself very soon!!
