Salami & Pepper Crumpet Pizzas

And so to the third and final dish of the day.  I have to say that I can't take all the credit for this.  I was ably assisted by my 3 year old Mackenzie.  He did an amazing job of laying the salami and cheese on top of the crumpets and thoroughly enjoyed himself too.

These were really nice, and very filling.  I think if I make them again, I shall add some mozzarella as well as the cheddar : )

This recipe can be found in the Best Food Fast! Book, Easy Italian, Issue 25, Page 40.

SALAMI & PEPPER CRUMPET PIZZAS

Ingredients

8 crumpets (I used 14 as I have a big family)
8 teaspoons red pesto sauce
8 slices salami
1/2 yellow pepper, deseeded and sliced
12 cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 teaspoon olive oil
60g (2 1/2oz) cheddar, grated
fresh basil leaves, to garnish

Method

1. Preheat the grill to high.  Toast the crumpets, then spread each one with 1 teaspoon pesto and top with a slice of salami.

2. Toss the pepper and tomatoes with the oil and pile onto the crumpets.  Scatter with Cheddar and grill for 4-5 minutes until melted and golden.  Serve garnished with basil leaves.
