Preparation time: 10 minutes

Total time: 17 minutes
Number of servings: 3 servings

Ingredients

- 3 sandwich breads (or baguettes, if preferred)
- 1 green bell pepper
- 1 small onion
- 6 tablespoons pizza sauce
- 6 small champignon mushrooms (or 3 large)
- A few sliced black olives
- 1 medium tomato
- A few slices of salami
- A few slices of beef fillet (or turkey breast, as preferred)
- Mozzarella cheese (amount to taste)

Preparing the Pizza Sauce (optional)

If you don't have pizza sauce on hand, don't worry! You can quickly make it using the following ingredients:

- 200 g tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon basil

Mix all the ingredients in a small bowl until you achieve a homogeneous mixture. This sauce will add a fantastic flavor to your pizza sandwich!

Step by Step

1. Preparing the Bread: Cut the sandwich breads in half. If you choose to use baguettes, cut them lengthwise. These will become the perfect base for your pizza.

2. Spreading the Sauce: Use a spoon to spread the pizza sauce on each half of the bread. Make sure it's evenly distributed so that every bite is full of flavor.

3. Adding the Ingredients: Start adding the ingredients. Slice the onion thinly, the bell pepper into rings, and the tomato into slices. The mushrooms can be sliced or left whole, depending on your preferences. Place them on the pizza sauce, along with the olives, salami slices, and beef fillet. Here you can be creative! Add as many of your favorite vegetables or even a few hot peppers for an extra kick.

4. Mozzarella Cheese: Now comes the most delicious part – the cheese! Grate or slice the mozzarella and generously sprinkle it over all the ingredients. This will melt and create a delicious crust.

5. Baking: Place the sandwiches in the microwave oven on the convection setting at 200°C. Leave them in the oven for 7 minutes, until the cheese melts and turns golden.

6. Serving: Remove the sandwiches from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Serve them warm, perhaps with a fresh salad on the side or with dipping sauces like tomato sauce or a yogurt herb dip.

Useful Tips

- Variations: Don't limit yourself to mushrooms or salami! You can add pepperoni, bacon, or even grilled vegetables to customize the recipe to your tastes.
- For a vegetarian option: Replace the meat with vegetables like zucchini or eggplant and add feta cheese for an intense flavor.
- Whole grain bread: Use whole grain bread to add extra nutrients and fiber.
