I LOVE Italian cooking! Lately I cannot get enough Margherita Pizza. There is a place close to our house that makes killer these amazing specialty pizzas. I go there more than I should, and have tried to recreate the many of their recipes at home. I recently created a quick and easy Margherita Pizza that was out-of-this-world delicious. Because it was so quick, and so easy, I knew I had to share.

The weather has been unseasonably warm here so I have really tried to eek out every last bit of themgrilling season. A couple of years ago, I did a post entitled Pizza on the Grill. When you grill a pizza, it mimics the flavor that only brick oven places can achieve. The grill infuses a great smokey, fired flavor into the crust, and it makes a perfect, crisp crust with a chewy center.

This particular day, was a Saturday. I usually do something easy on Saturdays, because we are usually running all over the place from one activity to the next. I had a hankering for that same Margherita Pizza that I just can’t get out of my head. I had to run to the store to grab a few things for Sunday dinner, and decided while I was there I would grab some ingredients to attempt a Margherita pizza on the grill.

I knew a wanted a quality sauce, so I set off to find something that I thought would work in place of my homemade sauce. Ragu® makes a pizza sauce called Ragu® Homemade Style. My kids love the Ragu® Traditional, so I thought I’d give it a whirl.

I grabbed some mozzarella, tomato, and fresh basil. I was armed with all I needed to make this pizza happen.
