Spicy Italian Sausage Grilled Pizzas

You know the 4th of July is coming up, right? How many of you are going to be grilling that day? If you are, why not think about grilling up some pizza to go along with the hamburgers and hotdogs? These are SO easy to do using Mama Mary's Gourmet Pizza Crusts™! I used the Thin & Crispy variety and I have to say, perfection on a plate! The crunchy crust the grill gave them was terrific! And this was SO easy! I cooked up some Italian sausage for ours, but depending on what ingredients you choose, you could get by with NO cooking at all. And if you want to get really creative, have a pizza bar and let everyone make their own!! Give them a try this coming holiday weekend!!! Simple and delicious!

The divide the remaining cheeses between the pizzas.

Preheat your grill to medium heat for 10 minutes.

Carefully place the pizzas on the grill and allow to grill for 5 - 10 minutes until the bottom of the crusts have golden grill marks.

Turn the grill off, and close grill to allow the cheeses to melt and pizzas to warm through.
