I always buy these in case I don't fancy a heavy meal or just want something to keep me going 'til alot later in the day.
They cost roughly £1.89 in Supermarkets, although they are often on offer for £1 a box in Iceland and Asda. You get 2 in a box wrapped in a clear packaging and sitting comfortably on a circular bit of cardboard. There are a few different toppings you can buy such as Cheese & Tomato, Pepperoni, Meat Combo and Ham and Pineapple.
You can either cook them in the microwave or bake them in the oven. If cooking in a microwave one pizza takes just 3 minutes whereas cooking in the oven takes 20 minutes roughly. I prefer to cook them in the microwave as it's quicker, and I personally feel they taste alot better.
For a microwaveable pizza there is such alot of taste, plenty of toppings and alot of sauce. Even when ordering a takeaway pizza I struggle to find a a decent amount of sauce, whereas these are overflowing with toppings of various sizes and colours. They look attractive and extremely appealing considering they are just pizzas.
Despite them being such small pizzas, just one of these is quite filling for just one person.
Overall I really enjoy these pizzas, they are not the healthiest being 18.5g of fat per pizza but they can make a really tasty meal.
Ham & Pineapple - The sauce on these as usual I find very generous. Toppings differ in each pizza but are usualy plentiful. You get small thin slices of ham and small cubes of pineapple which make the pizza sweet. To me these pizzas seem a 'lighter' pizza than the others I've tried.
Pepperoni - Although I do like pepperoni pizzas I find this is the one with the least flavour. It may just be me but I find the sauce on these have a tangy edge on them and the pepperonis themselves add no flavour at all which is a bit disapointing.
Cheese and Tomato - The basic pizza but yet still flavoursome and not lacking in pastry, sauce or cheese. Nothing to be complaining about really.
Meat Combo - I usually buy the meat combo pizzas and they are scrummy. They include mozzarella cheese, spicy beef, pepperoni and smoke flavoured ham. This for me is the beast of the bunch, it is an angry looking pizza with dark reddy colours of meat all mounded on top. Toppings usually being spread even and plenty of them. It is for me the greasiest pizza of the lot though especially when cooked in the microwave. However it offers plenty of taste and I enjoy them.
I always stock up when they are on offer for just £1 for 2 and would definitely reccomend them as quick, convenient snack or meal.
