I love pizza, you love pizza, we all love pizza. But when I give it to Harry the topping usually slides right off and he he finds it hard to eat. So these little cuties are here to fix all that. They are simply the layers of toppings you would usually find on a pizza, but sliced into rounds and glued together with cheese, so it can be bitten into without falling apart.

I would be happy eating these warm or cold (in a lunch box), and there are a great range of gluten free pita’s you can use if need be.

Tip: Don’t be limited by my ingredients, choose your favourites and run with it.

Ingredients

  • 4 slices good quality cooked turkey (or ham)
  • ½ sweet potato, peeled 
  • 1 potato, peeled 
  • 1 zucchini 
  • 3 tbs ricotta cheese 
  • ½ cup grated cheese
  • 4 x Bega Farmers' Tasty Natural Cheese Slices, cut into quarters
  • (Tomato/onion sauce) (This makes far more than you need, but is a wonderful base for many meals, so freeze the rest in small portions.)
  • 1 tbs olive oil 
  • 1 medium brown onion, finely chopped 
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 410g can tomatoes
  • 1 tbs chopped fresh basil (optional) 

Method

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C.  -

Step 2

To make tomato sauce, heat oil in a small saucepan, add onion and garlic and sauté for a minute, add tomatoes and simmer for around 10 - 15 minutes or until sauce has reduced. Stir through basil (optional) and set aside.  -

Step 3

Using a sharp knife, cut 8 circles out of the pita bread. I used an egg ring as my guide. Then slice each of the vegetables as thin as you can, cut the cheese and trim to roughly match the pita circles. -

Step 4

(Optional) Depending on the vegetables you are using, you could briefly steam the slices to ensure they are cooked through. -

Step 5

Layer the pizzas - pita round, tomato sauce, sweet potato, ricotta, turkey, zucchini, potato, and cheese. -

Step 6

Place in the oven for around 8 - 10 minutes or until the cheese is golden and the pita is just crispy. -

    Hey, love your work here at one handed cooks! I may have a solution to your pizza topping sliding off. Lots of people don’t realise, but you have to put the cheese down first on the sauce, then your toppings on that. The cheese will help everything stay on, and the other toppings cook better, instead of sweating. Another tip is not to put too much topping on (I know I always have to fight the urge!).
    Anyway, hope this helps!
    Cheers, Amanda
