Fruit Pizza

Last night, my parents had pizza night over at their house. My dad is big into tailgating for the Arkansas Razorback football games, so he was testing grilled pizza recipes for the upcoming football season. I offered to bring a dessert, so I went along with the pizza theme.

This recipe is super easy, as well as fast and fun to put together. A good tip is to buy the apple slices that are already sliced and packaged into little bags. They won't brown, even after a few days if you happen to have left-over pizza.
