Cooking pizza on the grill is just as easy as in the oven! Check out my Grilled Pesto Pizza with Creamer potatoes, mushrooms and goat cheese!
Some of my favorite recipes are those that become ready to eat gradually. It can get overwhelming in the kitchen (or at the grill outside now that summer is here) when you're trying to juggle a handful of tasks and still provide something tasty for the family dinner.
My case in point is proved by cooking with The Little Potato Company and their Creamer potatoes. The Little Potato Company offers fresh Creamer potatoes in bags, Microwave Ready Kits, or the Oven | Grill Ready Kits that I used for this recipe.
The kit comes with one pound of fresh Creamer potatoes in a handy foil tray and a separate seasoning pack, so all you need to do is add a quick drizzle of olive oil along with the seasoning and either roast them in the oven or on top of the grill for 30 minutes. Even if cooking is not your favorite thing to do, Little potatoes make dinnertime so easy!
While the Little potatoes cook on the grill, you can prepare whatever else you plan to serve with them for a complete meal in less than an hour! The Little Potato Company’s Oven | Grill Ready Kits (and all of their products actually!) are all about convenience while still maintaining nutrition and awesome flavor.
There’s no need to wash or peel the potatoes, because they’re prewashed and have naturally tender skin which tastes delicious – both make them easy to prepare! So what grilled potato recipe did I end up making with my Creamer potatoes?
I created an easy Grilled Potato Pesto and Goat Cheese Pizza with Shiitake mushrooms and sliced Onion and Chive Oven | Grill Ready Creamer potatoes. The onion and chive seasoning was the perfect complement with the savory goat cheese.
The Oven | Grill Ready Kits are also available in two other flavors, Roasted Red Pepper and Onion and Garlic Herb. The hardest part was trying not to keep popping them in my mouth as I was making the pizza.
