Ingredient Breakdown

Bread

• Acts as your pizza base
• Crisp edges + soft center when cooked right

Slightly thick bread works best for structure

Instant Pizza Sauce

• Made using ketchup + seasoning
• Sweet, tangy, and quick

Perfect when you don’t have time for homemade sauce

Mozzarella Cheese

• Melts beautifully
• Gives that classic stretchy “pizza pull.”

Veggie Toppings

• Capsicum → crunch + freshness
• Corn → sweetness
• Olives → slight tang

Seasoning

• Italian seasoning + chilli flakes
• Adds that authentic pizza flavor

Butter

• Helps crisp the bread
• Adds richness and flavor

How This Comes Together

Start by mixing your instant pizza sauce ketchup, Italian seasoning, chilli flakes, and pepper. Give it a quick stir, and your sauce is ready in seconds.

Now take your bread slices and cut them into rounds (or keep them as-is if you prefer).

Spread a generous layer of sauce over each slice. Don’t be shy here, this is where the flavor starts.

Add a layer of grated mozzarella cheese.

Then comes the fun part, toppings.

Scatter capsicum, corn, olives… and finish with another layer of cheese.

Sprinkle some seasoning and chilli flakes on top.

Now heat a pan and keep the flame on low.

Add a little butter and place your prepared bread slices onto the pan.

Cover with a lid.

As it cooks, the bottom turns crispy while the cheese melts slowly on top.

In a few minutes, you’ll see perfectly melted cheese and a golden, crispy base.

That’s your signal, it’s ready to serve.

Pro Tip💡 : Always cook on a low flame. High heat will burn the bread before the cheese melts.

Vegan Swap🌿 : Use vegan cheese. Replace butter with olive oil
