It's so simple to knock up a great tasting homemade pizza with little effort. There are so many great pre-made pizza bases out there you don't even need to make up a dough! Although if you fancy it you can make a cheats dough with a ciabatta bread mix – just follow pack instructions then roll out to form a pizza base. Then all that's left is to pick your favourite toppings, scatter them over the pizza, bake until the cheese is oozing and try to resist a bite while it's still to hot to eat!
