Ingredients

3 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon active dry yeast
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1-1/4 to 1-1/2 cups warm water (120° to 130°)
TOPPING:
2 tablespoons olive oil
10 cups beet greens, coarsely chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
3/4 cup prepared pesto
3/4 cup shredded Italian cheese blend
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
2 medium heirloom tomatoes, thinly sliced
1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped

Steps:

Place flour, salt and yeast in a food processor; pulse until blended. While processing, add 2 tablespoons oil and enough water in a steady stream for dough to form a ball. Turn dough onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes., Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until almost doubled, about 1-1/2 hours., Punch down dough. On a lightly floured surface, divide dough into 2 portions. Press or roll each portion into a 10-in. circle; place each on a piece of greased foil (about 12 in. square). Brush tops with remaining oil; cover and let rest 10 minutes., For topping, in a 6-qt. stockpot, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add beet greens; cook and stir until tender, 3-5 minutes. Add garlic; cook 30 seconds longer. Remove from heat; stir in vinegar., Carefully invert pizza crusts onto oiled grill rack; remove foil. Grill, covered, over medium heat until bottoms are lightly browned, 3-5 minutes. Turn; grill until second side begins to brown, 1-2 minutes., Remove from grill. Spread with pesto; top with beet greens, cheeses and tomatoes. Return pizzas to grill. Cook, covered, over medium heat until cheese is melted, 2-4 minutes. Sprinkle with basil.
