Grilled Zucchini Pizza

August 1, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 34 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Half way through the week!  Woohoo!!  I can’t wait till Friday, we have our work Barbecue and then I am on vacation.  It’s going to be wonderful not having to go to work, sleep in and just have fun.  The only problem is I can’t believe it’s August already!  Where the heck did the summer go?  I already noticed that the sun is shifting.  When I come home from work, my lounge chair is normally in the sun, but this past week it’s been getting half way shaded.  I don’t like that, I’m not ready for summer to come to an end, it feels like it just begun!

Ready for today’s recipe?  I am just loving this one!!!

These are my Grilled Zucchini Pizza’s.  They are so quick and easy to make, tasty too.  I made mine with tomatoes and pepperoni for my Hubby.  He’s not a fan of zucchini, but he loved these.  I asked him would you eat these again and he said yes.  Hey that’s a huge step for him.  I guess if I put pepperoni or bacon on anything, he’ll eat it!


These pizzas took about 5 minutes to make and about 5 minutes on the grill.  It’s been so hot that I refuse to turn on the oven.  However you could cook these in your broiler if you prefer it over the grill.

I used an 8 Ball Zucchini, which is a zucchini about the shape and size of a softball.  I sliced it about 1/4″ thick, added the pizza sauce, fresh basil, oregano, mozzarella cheese and topped it with sliced cherry tomatoes.  I placed it on a non-stick aluminium foil and placed it on the grill over low heat and cooked it until the cheese melted, which was about 5 minutes.  This is truly a wonderful, yummy tasting dish.  I think it’s my favorite way to have zucchini so far.  Having zucchini as pizza is so good that I don’t even miss the bread and either did my Husband.  I really am happy he liked them.

I hope you like today’s recipe, honestly I am really impressed with them.  They tasted way better than I thought they would.  The key is to use the pizza sauce that you like.  We used Trader Joe’s jarred pizza sauce.  That is a family favorite!

I have a feeling I will be making these again this week.  I have Five 8 Ball Zucchini’s to use this week, and since my Husband likes them, I will for sure make them soon!

Have a great rest of the week!
Toodles,

Jen

Happy December 1st! Can you believe it’s only 25 Happy December 1st! Can you believe it’s only 25 days until Christmas? I’m not ready yet!! But I did get my Christmas tablescape ready! 
🎄
I was gifted this beautiful table cloth by @cottonprintclub. It’s 100% cotton, comes in several sizes and colors, doesn’t bleed or shrink when washed. I love the shade of green and it is so beautiful that you can use it all year. 
🎄
I went with a simple tablescape to show off my beautiful plates that I received from @backcountrymercantile. All I added to my table was some garland, candlesticks and of course twinkling lights. Swipe the photo to see my table in the evening.

I ran and grabbed my dough bowl and filled it with Claire Burke Christmas Memories Potpourri that filled the room with the scent of cinnamon, cloves and Christmas trees. It’s perfect! The potpourri has gold and red accents in it. There are large and baby pinecones with white snow on them, and pinecones dipped in gold. This is the perfect potpourri for the season.

Hi Everyone! I’m done decorating my kitchen and Hi Everyone! I’m done decorating my kitchen and oh my gosh, I love it!! Pink is so fun! I thought I would share with you how I styled my kitchen sink area.
💗
The inspiration for this space came from the stunning pieces that I was gifted from my friend Britni @arcadian.collective. I love her shop! Such timeless, elegant pieces that will last a lifetime.
💗
I received from Arcadian Collective the solid marble Seraphine Butter Bell, Vintage European solid brass Salt & Pepper Mill, Carrara Cielo Marble Stone Serveware and the cutest pink little Christmas candle. Check out my Arcadian Collective highlight for more details on each product. They would make a great holiday gift!
💗
Hope you have a wonderful day! I’ll be working on the living room today.

Happy World Kindness Day! This weekend I made my a Happy World Kindness Day! This weekend I made my annual snow jar to place on my shelf in the kitchen. You get a tiny sneak peak of my shelves at the end of the reel. The snow jars are so easy to do and you probably have most of the items on hand. 
💗
For the snow, I used blanket snow. You could also use, sugar or Epsom salt. I like the blanket snow because it’s not messy and it hides the fairy lights battery pack.
💗
The houses are ornaments that I bought at Target. I thought they were Perfect for my pink kitchen. Of course you can use whatever you have on hand. It doesn’t have to be a house and tree.
💗
If you buy fairy lights, make sure they have a timer on them. Trust me that will make life easier. If you don’t like fairy lights, you can use a faux candle. 
Ohhh and have a stack of batteries. I go through more batteries in the month of December then I do the rest of the year!
💗
Items used:
Apothecary jar
Fairy lights with timer
Pink house ornament
Bottlebrush tree
Pink ribbon 

Everything, but the pink ribbon was bought at Target. 
💗
Have fun creating! If you make one, tag me so I can share!!

Happy Monday! Here is a little throwback from last Happy Monday! Here is a little throwback from last years Christmas. I plan on doing green again in the living room. I just think it looks classic, plus I have all the decor already. So no need to buy more.
🎄
But I still do plan on doing pink in my kitchen. I figured I could use some pink everyday pieces that I already have and add pops of pink ornaments and pink little Christmas trees. I plan doing some shopping this week to see what I can find in pink. I’m so excited!! 
🎄
Have a fantastic Monday!

Happy Monday! Sorry I haven’t been on in awhile. Happy Monday! Sorry I haven’t been on in awhile. My husband was sick with the flu, then he passed it on to me. My dog even had an upper respiratory infection. Ugh! It was a rough 2 weeks. Then on Friday I had surgery to remove skin cancer on my chest. I’m sore and I can’t lift or exercise. Anyway, that’s why I have not been on.
🦇
I wanted to give you one last look at my Halloween kitchen before I change it out. Not sure if I’m going to add some Fall or Christmas next. Did you know Christmas is in 63 days? 😳
🦇
So I have been thinking about Christmas colors. The past 2 years I have done green and I love it, however I have always wanted to do a pink Christmas. Just not sure if I can pull it off? I don’t know if I want to go crazy and buy a bunch of pink? What color are you doing this year?
🦇
Have a great day!!
