Salsa: 3 cups chopped seeded tomatoes
1 medium onion, chopped
2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped
1 poblano pepper, seeded and chopped
1/3 cup minced fresh cilantro
¼ cup lime juice
1 Tbsp. olive oil

In a large bowl, combine the salsa ingredients; set aside.
Divide dough into fourths. On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion into 8 inch circle. Lightly brush both sides of dough with oil; place on grill. Cover and grill over medium heat for 1-2 minutes or until the bottom is lightly browned.
Remove from the grill. Top the grilled side of each pizza with ½ cup cheese, ¼ cup chorizo and ½ cup salsa. Return to the grill. Cover and cook for 4-5 minutes or until the bottom is browned and cheese is melted. Refrigerate remaining salsa. 4 servings
