Croissants - not just for breakfast!

If you're looking for a tasty alternative to everyday pizza, this is it.
These stuffed croissants are easy to make and would be great for a Halloween Party, or any chilled out gathering ;-)


You could make up a whole batch of these with different fillings, but I used the holy trinity of pizza flavours - cheese, onion and tomato - and then added some chorizo.

Preheat oven to 180C
Fry the onions and some sliced button mushrooms in a little oil, then add some sliced chorizo.
Tip in a tin of chopped tomatoes (I always add a teaspoon of sugar to my tomatoes) and cook for 5 to 6 minutes, until most of the liquid has evaporated. 
Cut deep slashes into the top of the croissants and put them on a baking tray. Fill them with your mixture.
Top the croissants with grated cheddar and bake for 5 or 6 minutes - until the cheese has melted.

You cannot eat just one of these - so make sure you make plenty!!
