Pimp my Pizza

So the basic thing here is taking an average dull frozen pizza and turn it into something you can proudly chug down with a few beers over a football game.

You know the bad thing about food here in Italy? The problem is we don't have any Hungry Man snacks, no Hot Pockets, no Subways, no Taco Bells, no Wendys, no White Castle, not even any Quiznos.

We are basically supposed to be eating olive oil and tomatoes and whatever else that is healthy and won't clog your arteries. But I rebel to that!

I'm not gonna submit to this country and its eating habits.

So let's the what's our basic ingredient:


That's a frozen pizza available here in Europe, best on the market when it comes to value for money, that's the mushroom one, the only edible of the serie as the others have shite like tuna on them.

Okay so now what we need is some goodness, and what do you think of when you think about something that's good and pink?

Bacon obviously, here it is:


So now we just have to fry our piggy goodness on a pan for a bit, until it cooks


At the same time we should be getting some proper mozzarella sliced up so we can add it to our pizza


This is our pizza in the oven out of the box, with no additions


Now let's add some yummy bacon, looks much better already


Let's have a better look at the bacon, looks so gorgeous and sexy on the pizza base, so crispy yet so delicate, the food of the goods and the alcoholics of this planet(yes there are gods among us, haven't you watched Thor yet?)



Cheese attack! Let's slam some damn mozzarella on that thing, now I'm talking about proper mozzarella from Italy, she melts and she's a beauty, there you go.



I did burn a little bit the edges but it was all good. I then doused it in Green Jalapeno Tabasco sauce and Encona Hot Pepper, my two favourite hot sauces.

Well people, bon appetit!

And by the way I actually ended up eating it with grapefruit juice, now some of you might be aware of its liver enzyme inhibiting abilities, which all help in certain situations, but I'll leave it here.
