Pizza toasts are so easy and delicious – a very simple alternative to an actual pizza when you can’t order out or have the energy to make pizza from scratch.
I made this pizza toast for brunch or should I say dinner, after I woke up at 2pm today. I had been thinking about making a tomato toast or a pizza toast for breakfast for some time now because I had been craving some tomato on toasted bread with a drizzle of olive oil; more like a good Italian bruschetta. However, I also wanted a lot of cheese to go with it so I finally made this bread pizza.
This pizza toast recipe is super simple and easy to follow. It is very flexible in terms of what all you can top it with. Since it’s a pizza toastie, you can pick and choose what to add on as the toppings. I went with tomatoes, onions, and chicken today.
