Remove from heat, and stir in mozzarella until melted.
  4. Spread half of cheese sauce on cooked side of each Grilled Pizza Crust, and top with potatoes, bacon, remaining cheese sauce, and Cheddar.
  5. Return pizzas to grill, and grill over indirect heat, covered with grill lid, for 7 to 10 minutes or until cheese is melted and bottom of crust is browned. Sprinkle with green onion. Serve immediately.

  1. 1¼ cups warm water (105° to 110°)
  2. 1 (¼-ounce) package active dry yeast
  3. 2 teaspoons sugar
  4. 3½ cups all-purpose flour
  5. 2 teaspoons salt
  6. ½ cup extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  7. Yellow cornmeal
Instructions
  1. In a small bowl, stir together 1¼ cups warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let stand for 5 minutes or until foamy.
  2. In the work bowl of a food processor, pulse together flour and salt. Slowly add yeast mixture and ¼ cup oil, processing until mixture forms a ball.
  3. On a lightly floured surface, knead dough for 5 to 6 minutes or until smooth and elastic.
  4. Spray a large bowl with nonstick cooking spray. Place dough in bowl, turning to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm draft-free place (85°) for 45 minutes or until doubled in size. Divide dough in half.
  5. Spray grill rack with nonstick nonflammable cooking spray. Preheat grill to medium-high heat (350° to 400°).
  6. Generously sprinkle cornmeal on a clean, flat surface. Place 1 portion of dough in center of cornmeal, and roll to a 12- to 15-inch circle or rectangle, about ¼ inch thick. Brush top of dough with 1 tablespoon oil, and sprinkle with cornmeal.
  7. Place dough on grill, oil side down, and grill, covered with grill lid, for 3 to 4 minutes or until top of dough is bubbly and bottom of dough is browned. Brush top of dough with 1 tablespoon oil. Invert dough onto a pizza peel or a rimless baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough, cornmeal, and oil. Top crusts, and continue grilling as directed.
