No-cheese pizza with store cupboard toppings
This no-cheese pizza makes use of ingredients many of us have sitting in the store cupboard. Perfect for those days when you need a quick dinner and the fridge supplies are running low!
Ingredients
- One pizza base, gluten free if needed (always check ingredients; see the main post for product suggestions)
- Up to 4 tablespoons tomato puree*
- 125 g tin of mackerel in olive oil
- ½ small (198g) tin of sweetcorn (no added salt)
- Pinch of mixed herbs
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven according to the instructions on the pizza bases.
- Spread the tomato puree over the pizza base, making sure that there is relatively even coverage.
- Drain and flake the tinned fish, checking for any little bones, and spread over the pizza base. Reserve some of the olive oil to drizzle over the pizza later
- Drain the sweetcorn and spread about half the tin across the pizza. You can keep the leftover sweetcorn in a sealed container in the fridge for use with another meal (e.g. sweetcorn fritters)
- Sprinkle over the mixed herbs, then drizzle some of the reserved olive oil lightly over the pizza.
- Before placing in the oven, press down the fillings so they are well embedded in the tomato puree; this is essential to avoid everything being flung off as soon as it gets near your child! Cook according to the instructions on the pizza bases and then slice up in sizes suitable for little hands.
Notes
- *Instead of tomato puree, you can also use a pre-made pizza sauce or a homemade version, like this vegetable packed sauce. But, in the spirit of the store cupboard pizza, puree is a quick and easy option!
- Leftover sweetcorn can be kept in a sealed container in the fridge for use with another meal (e.g. sweetcorn fritters).
- If you or your child has an allergy, always double check that the recipe and all of the components are suitable. This includes checking ‘may contain’ statements on each ingredient and making your own assessment of risk based on personal circumstances.
