Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

1 pound prepared pizza dough
2 teaspoons olive oil
1/3 cup ricotta cheese
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 pinch salt
6 (2 ounce) pieces fresh mozzarella
3 slices prosciutto, roughly torn
2 large basil leaves, roughly torn

Directions

Preheat a gas grill with all burners on High for 10 to 15 minutes.
Shape pizza dough into an 8 to 10-inch disc. Brush dough with olive oil.
Reduce the flame on half the grill burners to Low, to create areas of direct and indirect heat.
Carefully place dough onto the grill over direct heat. Close the cover. Grill dough until bottom is just barely cooked and shows char marks, 1 to 3 minutes.
Turn crust ninety degrees (do not flip dough over). Grill until crust shows light grill marks, 1 to 3 minutes.
Carefully remove par-grilled dough from the grill. Spread ricotta over dough; sprinkle with salt and Italian seasoning. Place cheese on top, add prosciutto evenly over cheese.
Return pizza to the grill over indirect heat; grill until cheese is melted, about 3 minutes. Carefully remove pizza from the grill.
Preheat the oven’s broiler.
Broil pizza until cheese is golden, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle torn basil on top of pizza. Allow pizza to rest for a few minutes before cutting into wedges.

Hamantashen

These hamantashen are the easiest I've ever made. They are a bit sweet, roll out easily, and are consumed quickly. My kids don't want to give them to their friends! Traditional fillings are prune and poppyseed, but you can use any canned pie filling, whole fruit jelly, chocolate chips, or any type of filling your family likes. Be creative with these — we put mini chocolate chips in the dough.

Chef John's Sausage & Shrimp Jambalaya

While shrimp jambalaya is really more of a thicker rice stew than a soup, it's one of those dishes that can be customized. Add more stock to easily make it into a soup recipe. Serve garnished with green onion.

Restaurant-Style Mango Lassi

This mango lassi is made with canned mango pulp blended with milk, yogurt, and ice for a smooth, creamy, refreshing Indian drink. Using mango pulp makes this recipe easy and avoids any chalky flavor you can sometimes get with fresh mangoes. Sprinkle ground cardamom on top if you like!
