If you are using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 10 minutes to prevent them from burning. Alternate fruit pieces and thread onto skewers. Brush kebabs with the sugar mixture and place on the grill. Grill kebabs for about 6-8 minutes, turning frequently until fruit starts to brown and is heated through.

Spray the disks of pizza dough with cooking spray or olive oil and place on the grill. Cook dough for 3-5 minutes. Flip over, and spread with strawberry jam. Add chocolate chunks and grilled fruit. Continue to grill until chocolate melts and pizza is heated through, about 4-5 minutes. Serve immediately. Makes enough for about 12 people; 1/2 a pizza each.
