Fire-Grilled Pizza Pocket Supreme
Just because you’re cooking outdoors doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice flavor and texture. This recipe turns out perfectly with the rich flavors of walnuts, mushrooms, and hearty @hodofoods organic firm tofu. If you don’t have a pie iron, no stress because you can make a regular pizza pocket using the same ingredients and bake it in the oven.
