These Pizza Boats are a fab slimming friendly alternative to pizza, great way to use up odds and ends in the fridge whilst still being low in Points and calories.

These Pizza Boats make a tasty lunch or dinner. You really can use whatever you fancy as the topping – whether it’s a little bit of meat or some veg!

These Pizza Boats are a great way of getting the kids involved in cooking. They are so easy and can be personalised for little taste buds!

We’ve used olives in these Pizza Boats which add a tiny bit more Point and calorie value to the end product. We know that a lot of people don’t like them, so why not try different combinations? Ham and mushroom, anchovy and tomato, bacon and sweetcorn – whatever floats your boat!

You can enjoy these Pizza Boats on their own, or serve them with an accompaniment like our Potato Salad. Our Rustic Potato Wedges would also make a great side dish to these Pizza Boats!

    Hi Sharna, the Pizza Boats may become a little soggy if reheated in the microwave. Reheating in the oven, covered with foil will probably give a better result. Hope that helps.

    Hi Chloe, we serve the Pizza Boats with mixed baby leaf salad and you could add in cherry tomatoes, sliced red onion, peppers or cucumber!
