Pizza picante

Pizza picante

Sharron says: "Perfect for a hasty snack for the kids after school or when we're all dashing around at the weekends. My kids love capers and olives, but of course you can add your kids' favourite toppings - canned sweetcorn, ham or sliced mushrooms are other favs with mine!"
