How to Make Grilled Veggie Sausage Pizza

  1. In a KitchenAid mixing bowl, dissolve 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast in 1 cup warm water (105-115°F). Let stand 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  2. Add 1 tablespoon sugar, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon garlic salt, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, and 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour to the yeast mixture.
  3. Using the dough hook on speed 1 or 2, knead the dough, gradually adding the remaining 1/2 cup all-purpose flour until a soft dough forms.
  4. Continue kneading with the dough hook for 6-8 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic.
  5. Lightly grease a large bowl. Turn the dough out onto the bowl, give it 3-4 kneads by hand, turn to coat with oil, then cover and let rise in a warm place for 30-40 minutes.
  6. Wrap heavy-duty foil around the outside bottom of two 12-inch pizza pans for added heat insulation.
  7. Lightly grease the pizza pans, dust with cornmeal, and set aside.
  8. In a large skillet, cook 1 pound Italian sausage (removed from casings) over medium heat until no longer pink, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain on paper towels and set aside.
  9. If using two 12-inch pans, divide the dough in half. For one large pizza, skip this step.
  10. Gently stretch or roll out the dough to fit each pizza pan. Build up the edges slightly.
  11. Spread 1/2 cup pizza sauce evenly over each crust.
  12. Distribute the cooked sausage evenly over the sauce.
  13. Top with your desired amount of shredded mozzarella cheese (approximately 2 cups total), sliced mushrooms (1 cup), sliced bell peppers (1 cup), and sliced onions (1/2 cup).
  14. Grill the pizzas, covered, over medium heat for 15-20 minutes, or until the bottom crust is browned and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
