"A pizza makes an economical and satisfying meal, the range of appetizing toppings is enormous and most are very easy to prepare. This selection includes favorite traditional recipes and exciting new ones using fresh or leftover meat and poultry, canned and fresh fish, shellfish, vegetables and fruit, eggs, various cheeses and, of course, herbs and other flavorings. There are also recipes for 'quick pizzas' using toast or muffins as a base, and 'near pizzas' using bases of rice, eggplant slices, potato or hamburger. "
