Grandma’s Recipe: Pizza Killer in Slovenia

mozzarella cheese

🥗Healthier: part-skim mozzarella

💰Cheaper: processed cheese

Part-skim mozzarella reduces fat while processed cheese is often less expensive.

pepperoni

🥗Healthier: turkey pepperoni

💰Cheaper: salami

Turkey pepperoni is lower in fat, while salami can be a cost-effective alternative.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: vegetable oil

Avocado oil offers health benefits, while vegetable oil is often more affordable.

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated cheese blend

Nutritional yeast provides a cheesy flavor without dairy, and a blend can be more economical.

Drizzle olive oil in a hot pan.

Prepare pizza dough by mixing flour, salt, yeast, and sugar, then let it rise in the refrigerator overnight and again at room temperature.

Grease hands and form dough into tennis ball-sized balls.

Let the dough balls set and rise again before shaping into circles.

Chop shallots and add to the hot pan with olive oil, then add salt to release their water.

Chop garlic and add it to the pan with the shallots.

Add beef to the pan and cook.

Use cassiota cheese (or mozzarella) and slice about 250 grams for filling.

Prep tomatoes for the filling.

Shape the dough into circles, add cheese, and layer with tomato and beef filling.

Preheat the oven before baking the filled dough.

Bake until done and serve.
