Grilled Artichoke-Mushroom Pizza

Looks like I haven't done much exciting cooking lately since I haven't had a new post since May...oops!

I''m just going to link to this recipe because I tried it directly off the Taste of Home website. I'll give you my thoughts on the recipe, too!

Our family thought this was fantastic! Chris said that it is the "best weird thing that he didn't think he would like before he tried it." Hayden loved it...minus his mushroom (which I allow him to pick off as long as he doesn't complain about them). I will make some changes next time to slightly improve it.
1. I used a store-bought crust b/c I was in a hurry ... but next time I will make my own crust.
2. I would make sure and use really sweet tomatoes. I would salt and pepper the pizza before I grill it.
3. I forgot to buy olives for this recipe - I LOVE black olives but my family hates them so they were thrilled!

I've never had much luck grilling pizza but I followed the recipe and used indirect heat and it worked great! I also loved that you put the herbs on near the end and they look so good on top of the cheese.

This is worth trying artichokes for the first time in this b/c they aren't overly strong. There's a great balance btw everything

  1. This sounds delicious! I buy olives and incorporate them with most of my meals!
