    For me you can't beat a thrifty Aldi pizza with extra added ham and veg toppings, bit of extra tomato sauce and tiny bit more grated cheese on top.. 
    Chill or frozen?  Ta. 
    Frozen for me - double pepperoni thin crust, for extra thrifty. Or a classic crust BBQ chicken for a bit more take away style..! sliced red onion and peppers, tear a bit of cheap sandwich ham, tom sauce + cheese on top
  • We got some snow! Thanks for sending it @WelshmansDaughter

    What is this *tiny* bit more grated cheese of which you speak @LilSmiler 😁

    Frozen for me too @beanielou, me being a veggie we always get the cheese and tomato one and add toppings. Good value at under three quid for a pizza for two
