We had somewhat of a rather light dinner tonight, seeing as Gloucestershire is still basking in this glori1 sly sunny weather. The recipe tonight was an onion, mushroom and goats cheese pizza taken from the Best Food Fast! Books, Book 25, Easy Italian, Page 38. I knew from the offing that the Harley and Mackenzie wouldn't give it a try, so I just cooked them an ordinary cheese pizza. The pizza was easy to prepare, using a pre-bought pizza base rather than making one and, only takes 10-12 minutes to cook so perfect if you need a lunch or dinner in a rush. I suppose if you have the time and the ingredients, you could make your own pizza base. I used a Tesco's own base which did the job great.
Ingredients
1 Thin And Crispy Pizza Base
2-3 Tablespoons Onion Relish
2 Tomatoes, Thinly Sliced
50g (2oz) Baby Mushrooms, Wiped And Sliced
125g (4oz) Goats Cheese, Broken Into Chunks
1 Tablespoon Pesto Sauce
Salt And Freshly Ground Black Pepper
Wild Rocket, To Serve
Method
1. Preheat the oven to 220C/425F/Gas 7. Put the pizza base onto a baking sheet. Spread with the onion relish. Scatter the tomatoes and mushrooms on top. Add the goats cheese and bake for 10-12 minutes until golden.
2. Quickly dot the pesto sauce over the top of the pizza. Season with salt and pepper and serve with a handful of rocket on top.
DISHED UP WITH A BASIC SALAD & SOME GARLIC BREAD
A little tip for you, spread the onion relish in a thin layer as the flavour is quite strong, but it cuts through the rich goats cheese beautifully.
The pizza is supposed to serve two but I definitely could not manage half a pizza. It has 406 calories and 16 grams of fat per serving.
Enjoy
