"A local pizza joint makes a creamy chicken pizza which is one of my favourites so I thought I'd try to recreate it. They use mushrooms whereas I've used pineapple because I always like the extra sweetness and moisture that pineapple gives to a pizza.

"Spicy sausage, potato and red peppers in a omelette makes a quick and tasty meal - because it uses canned vegetables. But if you prefer, you can, of course, use fresh vegetables.
