    not only does this look crazy good (pizza for breakfast – hell yeah!) but now I am madly googling kitchenaid grills. I am a kitchenaid freak but the range of products here in Australia is very limited #pouts

    This breakfast pizza looks so much better than one I had here in Spain awhile ago. That pizza nearly put me off eating pizza forever – so imagine how bad it was! My favortie part is that it is grilled! How awesome is that!

    Your grill is SO purty. How did you get it to be so shiny and nice? Ours looks a lot rougher!
    If I told my husband you’ve been grilling pizzas for weeks, he’d leave me for you. I wouldn’t hold it against him. This one looks amazing, as did the asparagus one. You’re on a roll, girlfriend!
