A hearty pizza for footy night. The crumbled Gorgonzola is a great touch. Lose the Prosciutto for a nice vego option...

Method

1. Oil base of pizza tray and spread pizza dough evenly across the base of a 28cm (11inch) pizza tray. 2. Drizzle macadamia oil on top of base. Spread mozzarella evenly across dough and top with crumbled gorgonzola. 3. Cook in hot oven until cheeses are melted and base is golden brown. 4.
