Submitted by PetsRus

"This is called here in The Netherlands a 'pan pizza' now. When I grew up my mother made this for us as a treat and we just called it 'bread from the frying pan'!"

Loved it! Great for a 'kinda' light lunch, and flavors I adore! I used baby swiss and skipped the paprika sprinkling. YUM! I will need to remember this the next time DH says 'grilled cheese?' Made in honor and memory of Pets'R'Us!

Very good. Was a little messy since I used regular sliced bread, thin sliced deli meat, cubed pineapple, and american cheese. But a good, quick way to get a taste similar to hawaiian pizza when I can't get a whole pizza.

Yum! So easy and a great blend of flavors - pineapple and ham is always such a great combo. I used Swiss cheese. Thanks for sharing! Best of 2011 Tag.

This was very tasty! I used colby-jack cheese (what I had available) and a few slices of thin sliced deli ham. Thanks for sharing!

I really liked this!! Made with cheddar cheese and 2 thin slice of ham. Next time will toast and extra piece of bread to make a sandwich so it is a little easier to eat. Made for Cook-a-thon for Pets'R'Us 5/2010.
