Grilled Pizza with Sausage, Onions and Peppers

Oh man, you NEED to try this. I can't do whole wheat tortillas usually, but this way can't be beat. And it is super quick and easy. We were thinking it would make an awesome appetizer at a BBQ as well. Plus, the topping possibilities are endless.

Grilled Pizza with Sausage, Onions and Peppers (from WW website)
Serves 4

* 1 small red onion(s), cut into thin slivers
* 1 small yellow pepper(s), cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
* 1/2 cup pizza sauce, or tomato sauce
* 4 medium whole wheat tortilla(s)
* 1 tsp dried oregano
* 3/4 cup part-skim mozzarella cheese, shredded
* 3 oz turkey Italian sausage

Preheat an outdoor grill to medium (or a grill pan over medium-high heat). Place sausage, onion and pepper on grill in a grill basket; cook, flipping once, until sausage is golden and vegetables start to brown, about 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from grill and set aside until ready to use.

To prepare pizzas, spread 2 tablespoons of sauce on each tortilla. Sprinkle each with 1/4 teaspoon of dried oregano and then top each with 1/4 of sausage-vegetable mixture; top each with 3 tablespoons of cheese.

Place pizzas on grill (or as many as will fit on grill pan at one time) and cook until edges begin to brown, about 3 to 5 minutes; rotate pizzas. Continue cooking until cheese is bubbly, about 2 to 4 minutes more. (If all 4 pizzas do not fit on grill pan at once, repeat with remaining ingredients.) Yields 1 pizza per serving.

Points per serving: 3
