Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 cups flour
3/4 teaspoon active dry yeast
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup warm water
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
10 slices bacon
1 cup lettuce
1 cup arugula

Once your grill is very hot, toss the disk, oiled side down onto the grill for about 3 or 4 minutes. You will see the dough start to blister and crackle, turn the dough over. Top the dough with cheese and bacon, Reduce the heat of your grill and put the cover down. Cook for 5 minutes until cheese is bubbly and bottom of dough is nicely browned. Slide pizza off the grill onto dinner plates.
