EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Watch pizzas carefully. Each grill heats and cooks differently. If the lowest setting of your grill seems too hot, move pizzas to a cooler part of the grill. You could also turn off a burner if your grill has more than one burner.

To bake pizzas, heat oven to 375°F. Place pizzas on cookie sheet. Bake 6 to 8 minutes or until toppings are warm. Sprinkle basil over pizzas.

Use a kitchen scissors to easily cut the fresh basil leaves.

My guests & I enjoyed them. Only I didn't have a pizza crust, so I had to use Pillsbury biscuits that I had left over from the day before. I cut them down the center and put the toppings on.
