Most people are familiar with traditional pizza made in an oven, but this recipe introduces a new twist to it by BBQ'ing the pizza dough. The dough is made with a mixture of whole wheat flour, cornmeal, and yogurt that gives it a distinct texture and flavor. The toppings are a combination of marinated artichoke hearts, black olives, tomatoes, and cheese that complements the smoky flavor. This BBQ'd Cornmeal Crust Pizza with Artichokes is easy to make, delicious, and a fantastic way to mix up your pizza game.

2.In a large bowl, whisk together the two types of flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and dry basil.
3.Add yogurt and oil to the dry mixture and fold with a spatula until you get a sticky dough.
4.Cover your baking pan with foil and place the dough on it by spreading it with the spatula.
5.Once the crust is firm enough, flip it over with a spatula and grill for two minutes. Repeat on the other side.
6.Add toppings to the pizza crust, starting with quartered marinated artichoke hearts, black olives, and green onions. Then place the cut tomatoes on top of the vegetables.
7.Evenly spread mozzarella and provolone cheese on top of the vegetables.
