605 Kcalories - protein 4 g, fat 41 g – carbohydrates 41 g

Ingredients:
375g ready made puff pastry, thawed if frozen
2 big plum(or breakfast) tomatoes
1 courgette
1 onion
1 mozzarella cheese
4 table spoons of green pesto
Salt & Pepper

Method:
Preheat oven to fan 200C/conventional 225C (or check the instructions on the package).

Wash and slice the tomatoes and the courgette, thinly slice the onion and slice the mozzarella.

Unfold the pastry on a lightly flowered surface. Roll into 30 x 30 cm square and place on a baking sheet. Prick the pastry with a fork.

Bake for 5 minutes.

Spread the pesto over the crust and place the vegetables and mozzarella on top.

Put the pizza back in the oven and bake for another 20 minutes.

Really yummy with a green salad.

That’s almost the same amount of fat as there is in 100 gram chocolate and some people eat that for a snack, Andre.

Anyway I never said it was lean cuisine, it’s just yummy :)
