Individual Heart Pizzas Recipes

Steps:

• Cut the pizza dough into 8 pieces, each about the size of a tennis ball.
• Stretch each piece into a circle, then shape into hearts by pushing in the top and pinching then pulling down on the bottom.
• Let dough sit for about 10 minutes to rest and rise.
• With the grill on medium-high (about 350-400 degrees), transfer crusts to the grill and cook until the crust puffs on top and gets grill marks on the bottom, about 3 minutes. If the dough sprouts any big bubbles, go ahead and pop them if you can.
• Transfer the crust to a cookie sheet or large platter, grilled side up.
• Spread the sauce on the pizza, add toppings, cover with cheese, and transfer back to the grill. Cook until pizza crust is cooked through, the toppings are hot, and the cheese is bubbly, about 3 - 4 minutes. If you have a barbecue with a lid, cooking them covered at this stage helps heat the toppings.
• Remove from the grill to a pizza peel or large baking sheet. Serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees. Lightly dust two baking sheets with cornmeal.
• On a lightly floured surface, divide dough into four equal pieces. Using your hands or a lightly floured rolling pin, stretch dough to form 8-inch rounds about 1/4 inch thick. If the dough begins to contract as you roll, let it rest for 10 minutes before rolling again.
• Transfer the dough rounds to the prepared pans. Using scissors, cut a V into one piece of dough to create the center notch of a heart shape. Stretch and pinch the opposite side to form the pointed end of the heart. Crimp the dough gently around the edge to form a border. Repeat with remaining dough.
• Divide pesto between dough, spreading in a thin even layer. Top with cheese, as desired, and sprinkle with parsley, salt, and pepper. Bake until crust is golden and cooked through, about 14 minutes.

Steps:

• Make the crust:
• In a food processor combine 1/2 cup of the flour and the yeast, with the motor running add the water, and turn the motor off. Add the oil, the sugar, the salt, and the remaining 1 cup flour, blend the mixture until it forms a ball, and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead the dough 8 to 10 times, form it into a ball, and let it rest while making the sausage mixture.
• In a small heavy skillet cook the sausage over moderate heat, stirring, until it is cooked through, transfer it with a slotted spoon to a bowl, and discard all but 1 tablespoons of the fat remaining in the skillet. In the fat cook the onion, the garlic, the orégano, the basil, and salt and pepper to taste over moderately low heat, stirring, until the onion is soft and transfer the onion mixture to the bowl.
• Halve the dough, form each half into a ball, and stretch each ball into 7-inch round, making the rounds slightly thicker around the edges. Transfer the rounds to a baking sheet (preferably black steel, for a crisper crust), oiled and sprinkled lightly with the cornmeal, top the rounds evenly with the sausage mixture, the tomatoes, the artichoke hearts, the mozzarella, the Parmesan, and salt and pepper to taste, and bake the pizzas on the bottom rack of a preheated 500°F. oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the crusts are golden brown.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Cook ground beef in a skillet.
• Separate biscuits and put them on a sheet of waxed paper or foil.
• Flatten each biscuit with palm of your hand until thin but not too thin.
• Place each one on a cookie sheet or pizza pan.
• Spread approximately 1 tsp tomato sauce on each"pizza" evenly, depending how saucy you want them.
• Put a spoonful of hamburger on each pizza.
• Spread evenly.
• Sprinkle each pizza with cheese, depending on how cheesy you want them.
• Bake in oven for 10 minutes or until edges are golden brown.
• Cool for a few minutes before serving.
