Fast Pizza - Recipe

A quick pizza is often the ultimate comfort food when you're short on time to prepare a meal from scratch. I purchased three pizza bases with tomato sauce and cheese already on top, then simply utilized whatever ingredients I had at home today to add on top and baked them in the oven.

 

The ingredients I used include the following (which can be adjusted according to taste):

 


  • Diced, grilled chicken breast (details on how I grill the chicken will be shared in a later post)
  • A half green bellpeper, grilled
  • A quarter of a small eggplant, grilled
  • A quarter of a leek, grilled
  • Sweetcorn
  • Tomato, sliced
  • Sea salt to taste
  • Cheese

After grilling the bell pepper, eggplant, and chicken in a pan, I sprinkled the grilled ingredients, along with the tomato, sweetcorn, and extra cheese, over the pizza base. Then, I preheated the oven to 190 degrees Celsius and baked the pizza for about 15 minutes. However, please note that all ovens are different, so your pizza might require more or less time in the oven. Keep an eye on it, and once it turns golden brown, it should be ready.

 

I recommend serving a nice cabbage or green salad alongside, as we often do in Sweden. :)



Now, I've only tried out these specific ingredients on the pizza this time. However, feel free to use whatever toppings you desire. You can add salami, mushrooms, mozzarella cheese, other veggies, etc. Let your imagination run wild when making your pizza! The key ingredient is an already made pizza base with tomato sauce and cheese, which makes the baking process very simple and ensures a dinner ready within 30 minutes.


Enjoy !

I'd never thought about buying a plain pizza and adding my own stuff. That's why I love food blogs. They give you some simple yet amazing ideas on how to transform a dish :)
I also love the lasagna :)
