We added some capers to our pizza slices, & served them with the crusts still onMy Dad used to make these for us when we were kids. They are so quick and simple to make, yet deliver maximum flavour … these were such a hit that the recipe was even featured in a copy of my annual primary school Cook Book.
For my daughter’s recent birthday party, I asked my Dad if he’d make these so that we could serve them to the parents who attended. We ate the leftovers the following night for supper with salad. They were every bit as good as I remembered as a child !

Dad’s Quick Pizza
(All ingredients are approximate according to how many people you are feeding, and how much cheese etc you like on your pizza !)
A Loaf of freshly baked White Bread (remove the crusts if you prefer)
Butter
2 Onions, finely chopped
2 cloves Garlic, finely chopped
4 ripe Tomatoes, skinned & chopped
Fresh Herbs to taste, chopped (Basil, Oregano, Sage, Marjoram) – or you can use dried
Salt & Black Pepper to taste
Cheddar Cheese, to taste grated
Mozzarella Cheese, to taste sliced
Have the bread slices nearby on an oven proof tray. Melt some butter in a pot. Add the onions, garlic, tomatoes, herbs and seasonings and cook until browned and softened. Add a handful or so of the Cheddar cheese to this mixture just as it is nearly cooked, & stir until melted. Remove from the heat & spoon this mixture (whilst still hot) on to the bread slices. Sprinkle a little more of the Cheddar cheese over the topping, then add a couple of slices of Mozzarella cheese to each. Place under a hot grill until the cheese is golden and bubbling. Serve immediately. (Cut the bread into triangular slices before serving if you prefer).
