Tortilla Pizza bites

It comes as no real suprise to anyone that we are out of the World Cup.
We have one last chance to claw back some dignity with this afternoon's game against Costa Rica.
Don't hold your breath though!!

We had these mini pizza bites during the last England game.
The football might have been disappointing, but these were a huge hit.


I used a scone cutter to cut circles from corn tortillas and then placed them into a muffin tin.
I fried up some chopped bacon and added sauce to it. I used my favourite puttanesca sauce,
which is richly flavoured with anchovies, olives and chilli, but any pasta sauce you have on hand will do.
Then I sprinkled each bite with grated cheese and some extra olives.
Bake at 180C for about 10 minutes (keep an eye on them so they don't burn).

We tried them (as you do) straight from the oven and they were delicious.
The rest, I put in the fridge when they were cool and just brought them out 20 mins before serving.
