Here’s a really fun family activity and it’s edible at the end! Also makes quick and easy lunch, or dinner with some salad and garlic bread.

Either make the dough by hand or in a bread machine (most machines have a recipe for pizza dough) or buy ready made pizza bases from a supermarket.  One carton of passata and one tube of tomato puree.  Chopped up peppers, sliced mushrooms, pepperoni, sliced onions (red onions are particularly good) and sliced fresh tomatoes.  You could add other items such as ham, pineapple,  barbecued chicken, anchovies, sardines etc.   Grate plenty of mature cheddar or get some mozzarella or similar.

On each base spread passata and tomato puree generously.  Season with salt, pepper, dried oregano or mixed herbs if liked. Cover with cheese sufficient to be able to taste it.  Then top with whatever you like.

Cook for around 10 to 15 minutes at 190 degrees (fan oven) until the cheese is bubbling.
