Ham and Cheese Pizza

A ham and cheese pizza is something we make on the ship very often. It is wonderfully delicious appetizer which if served with a soup can also double as main course!

It is not one of the healthiest appetizers I have made but a slice every once in a while is allowed, don't you think? ;-)
Here is the recipe


Prepartion time: 1 hour
