Really tasty! We used rough puff pastry to save on cost which worked fine. However the whole amount comfortably fed just two of us, so will definitely make more next time! A lovely cheap meal =)

A very simple, quick and tasty recipe. I used tomato puree (which worked fine) and added some olives. Will be making this again and trying out some different toppings.

Lovely. Just made it for dinner and it went down really well. Definitely a decent mid-week dinner or weekend lunch dish.
My husband described it as "a winner" and my daughter didn't even pick the mushrooms off ;-)

super easy and super tasty - really versatile and I swap ingredients depending on what I have in/feel like eating. Always goes down well with my husband and on a girls night in when you don't want to spend much time in the kitchen!

Very easy and a great combination of flavours. Not light but... definitely a recipe I'll use again.

Loved it! It's very easy to make and delicious! Didn't have sundry tomato paste so I used sunblush tomatoes which I wizzed in the food processor, it was very handy as they were already seasoned with garlic.
Will definitely make that again.
Thanks again BBC Good Food for this recipe.

I wasn't so keen, but my husband loved it, especially as I had added parma ham to it before popping it in the oven! I just found it a bit too greasy, but I'm also fussy during pregnancy! Would have worked well with a nice side salad.

I added aubergine to this recipe: It worked beautifully as a main served with dressed salad. A great idea if you are in a rush.

Great recipe that my daughter and niece keep asking for as a treat. I fried the mushrooms first to stop them drying out. l

It's certainly quick and easy but I found the sundried tomato flavour overwhelmed the courgettes and mushrooms. The Mozarella is also very bland although it looks good. Black olives are a good addition.

Also, I think you need to heap the ingredients otherwise there is too much pastry to too little filling. I will make it again but will probably use a more flavoursome cheese.

Oh wow! Delish! I put red onions on mine too & it was lovely, making another one today with mortadella on.. but u could pretty much use anything for the topping, it's just like a posh pizza!

Cooked this last night - it was great and so easy to do. I didn't have tomato paste so I substituted for tomato puree. Also used double the garlic as we like it. Tasted great. Will definitely do this again.

This is so great and easy. I made it with courgette, asparagus, tomatoes and fresh oregano - it was delicious and I'll definitely be making it again with various other toppings.

This was extremely easy to make and made a nice change to go with some salad. It was really tasty and as someone else said 'it was like eating a posh pizza' perfect way to describe it.
Will defo be making this again.

Made this last night. It was soooooo good and very easy. I also added some chorizo and used round puff pastry. It looked spectacular!! Will definitely make again.
