Directions#
Preheat oven to 210 degrees Celsius.

Add garlic, canned tomatoes, salt, sugar and dry herbs. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer until thickened.
Spread sauce over pizza bases then top with cheese, ham and pineapple.
Cook for approximately 15 to 20 minutes or until base is crisp and toppings have cooked.
Remove from oven and allow to cool before cutting.
Cut each pizza into the following number of pieces for each age group:
- Years 0 to 3 – 9 pieces
- Years 4 to 8 – 6 pieces
- Years 9 and above – 4 pieces.

Special diet substitution ideas#
- Vegetarian: omit ham. Increase cheese to 40g per serve. Add 20g per serve of plant-based meat alternative such as Plan*t plant-based chick*n or lentils for Years 9 and above. If using lentils add to the sauce rather than on top of the pizza.

- Years 0 to 3 – 45g
- Years 4 to 8 – 60g
- Years 9 and above – 75g
- Halal: use halal certified cooked chicken instead of ham.
- Dairy (cow's milk): use plant-based cheese, increase the total quantity of ham or alternative protein used for each year group to:
- Years 0 to 3 – 30g
- Years 4 to 8 – 40g
- Years 9 and above – 50g
- Gluten (wheat): use gluten-free buns instead of pizza bases.
