Note

Tips

• - Substitute onion with 2 little young onions and 1 tablespoon dried chives for a more delicate taste.
• - My husband and I prefer powdered red chilly instead of ground pepper. It's healthier.
• - When I have not much time, I use tinned chopped tomatoes.
• - Healthy eating. I do not always fry slightly onions. Generally, I simmer onion in little water and then add potatoes and tomatoes. After pouring in a glass of water, I continue cooking, half-covered, on low heat for the necessary time. Once turned off the stove, I add olive oil.
• - I often add 1 tablespoon chopped parsley and 1 teaspoon dried thyme too.

Menu planning

• - Prepare this double pizza with tomatoes and potatoes in summer for your family menu accompanied by a green seasonal salad.
• - I usually prepare it for my summer meals, buffet style. Cut into more portions it can accompany assorted salami or fish carpaccio.

Healthy eating

• - A portion of this pie with tomatoes and potatoes is high-calorie, as you can see. On the other hand it was easily imaginable, considered its ingredients. So plan it for your family menu with caution, not frequently. The association between potatoes and cereals often has these effects ;))
