Grilled Pizza with Figs, Gorgonzola, Prosciutto, and Basil

Ah Summer... I love your colors. 
And fresh produce. 
And flowers and bright morning light. 
 
And late afternoons grilling pizzas. 
It's not a new flavor combination, but fresh sweet figs, salty prosciutto, and Gorgonzola come together to make my favorite pizza.

about 1 cup fresh black figs, cut into wedges or slices
3 oz prosciutto

Roll dough into two long rectangles. Have all toppings next to grill. Place dough grill and cook until there are nice dark grill marks, about 3 minutes. Flip over.
