Dough
1 1/4 cups all-purpose enriched flour
1 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
1 teaspoon salt
Vegetable oil cooking spray
Topping
1 pound red and yellow cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 pound turkey sausage, cooked and thinly sliced
1 cup grated part-skim mozzarella
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Steps:

Mix flour, yeast and salt in a bowl. Gradually add 1/2 cup warm (110°F) water until a soft dough forms. Divide dough into 4 portions. Using hands, roll dough into balls. Coat with cooking spray, cover with plastic wrap and set aside to rise, 30 to 45 minutes. When ready to cook, place each ball of dough on a piece of wax paper and flatten into a 4-inch circle. Coat grill with cooking spray and heat on high. Gently place dough onto grill and cook until dough puffs and underside stiffens (about 30 seconds); flip and reduce heat to low. Mix topping ingredients, then divide among crusts. Cover grill. Cook until cheese melts, 5 to 6 minutes more. Slice and serve.
