GRILLED VEGETABLE AND GOAT CHEESE PIZZA

Steps:

• Pre-heat your BBQ (or grill pan) to medium-high. Place cut vegetables in perforated grilling basket and grill until soft and starting to brown. Remove from BBQ and set aside while you assemble your pizza. At the same time, hand-crush tomatoes from a can of good plum tomatoes. Season with salt, pepper and some oregano and simmer on the stove-top over medium-low heat until thickened. Set aside to cool a bit. (*Note: if you're in a hurry, you can skip the simmering and just place some hand-crushed tomatoes right on to your pizza dough).
• Pre-heat oven to 500° F. with pizza stone on middle rack (if using). Press out your pizza dough and spoon on tomatoes or pizza sauce. Top with grilled vegetables and top with crumbled goat cheese. Bake in pre-heated oven for 10-15 minutes, until crust is golden and toppings are hot.
• Top with a drizzle of balsamic glaze and sprinkle with chopped parsley, if desired.

WEST COAST GRILLED VEGETABLE PIZZA

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium. Brush a large rimless baking sheet (or an inverted rimmed sheet) with 1 tablespoon oil. On a lightly floured work surface, roll and stretch dough to two 8-inch ovals or rounds. Transfer to prepared sheet. Brush tops with 1 tablespoon oil.
• Transfer dough to grill. Cook, without turning over, until undersides are firm and begin to char, 2 to 3 minutes. Using tongs and a large spatula, place crusts on baking sheet, grilled side up.
• Scatter crusts with tomatoes, scallion whites, and cheese; season with salt and pepper, and slide back onto grill. Cook, rotating occasionally, until cooked through and cheese begins to melt, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board.

GOAT CHEESE, GARLIC, AND KALE PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Place a pizza stone in the oven to preheat.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add olive oil. Add kale in batches until all is cooked through and dark green, about 15 minutes. Set aside.
• Roll dough out to desired thickness. Place dough onto a pizza peel and add kale, garlic, and goat cheese, in that order. Carefully place pizza onto the preheated pizza stone.
• Bake pizza in the preheated oven until cheese and crust is slightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes.

GOAT-CHEESE PIZZAS

Steps:

• If the pizza dough is frozen, defrost it the morning before it is needed.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• When ready to prepare the pizzas, put about 1 tablespoon of the flour onto a baking sheet, and spread it around. Using your hands, spread half the dough onto the baking sheet, adding flour to your hands and to the dough as needed to keep it from sticking. For a smoother, thinner crust, use a rolling pin. When the dough is spread out, sprinkle half of the toppings onto it. Then repeat the same procedure, making another pizza on another baking sheet.
• Bake for 30 minutes to 1 hour, depending on how thick the crust is and on how crusty you want the pizza. When done, cut the pizzas into small rectangular pieces.

CARAMELISED ONION & GOAT'S CHEESE PIZZA

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Tip the flour into a mixer with a dough hook, or a bowl. Add the yeast, salt, oil and just under 100ml warm water then mix to a soft dough. Knead in the food mixer for about 5 mins, but if making this by hand, tip onto a work surface and knead for about 10 mins. The dough is sticky, but try not to add too much extra flour. Leave in the bowl and cover with a tea towel while you make the topping. There is no need to let the dough prove for a specific time - just let it sit while you get on with the next step.
• Tip the onions into a non-stick wok and add the oil, 4 tbsp water and balsamic vinegar. Cover with a saucepan lid that sits inside the pan to help the onions soften, then cook for 15 mins, stirring about 3 times and replacing the lid quickly so as not to lose too much moisture. After the time is up, the onions should be golden and all the liquid gone. Tip onto a plate. Add the spinach and garlic to the pan and stir-fry until the spinach has wilted.
• Take the dough from the bowl and cut in half with an oiled knife, then press each piece into a 25-15 cm oval on a large greased baking sheet with oiled hands. Don't knead the dough first otherwise it will be too elastic and it will keep shrinking back.
• Spread with the spinach followed by the onions, then dot with the cheese and scatter with the olives, thyme and sunflower seeds. Bake for 15 mins until golden and the base is cooked through.
