Scatter over the garlicky mushrooms and top with the mozzarella.

Transfer the pizzas to the oven and cook for 10-12 minutes (or according to packet instructions) until the cheese has melted and the crust is crisp.

Chef's Tips

Slice and serve hot with a fresh green salad. Finish with a drizzle of olive oil, a sprinkle of chilli flakes, or a few fresh basil leaves if you like.

Serving Suggestions & Notes

Veggie Swap: If you do not like mushrooms or just want to change it up a bit, use sliced courgette instead of mushroom for an equally delicious pizza topping. | Add some protein: Add some crispy pancetta or Prosciutto for extra nutrients.
