30 Days On The Grill

This is a month of firsts....first blog and first cooking challenge to myself.  My goal is to do 30 Days On The Grill.  Not exactly consecutive, as life happens and there are days my family wants to head to a food truck rodeo or that we are not home to cook.  I am already a week into my challenge and decided this would be a good excuse to try out my blog.    I will backtrack to a week ago and share my 30 Days on the Grill journey.
For starters I searched out Pinterest and discovered a breakfast pizza via HowSweetEats
This is how mine turned out.


I will first say that this was out of this world good.  My 2 kids, Isabella and Atticus loved it, as did my husband.  My little footnote here is that if you have never grilled pizza before, it may take a few tries to get good and comfy with it.  The good news is that even though I thought that the dough was going to be a disaster, it turned out in the end and it was a great success.  A few things to mention:

 If you are going to be grilling your bacon, as I did on skewers...be prepared for big grease flare ups.  You may even want to have the number of your local fire department on hand.  I was constantly rotating my bacon from flames, to cold side of the grill til things simmered down.   All in all, have no fear, bacon turned out perfect.  I wish I knew I was going to be starting a blog...I would have definitely taken more photos. A photo of the flames would have been scary impressive.

My eggs seemed to take forever to cook, so as the dough started getting close to going from deliciously toasted to point of no return burnt, I removed the pizza to a pizza pan and for the last few minutes gave the eggs a blitz under the broiler unit in my oven.   That did the trick and moments later a family of four devoured this new discovery.
