Very tasty and quick, needs more cheese, I added parmesan, also made with bacon lardons instead of chorizo

8/9/15 – easy recipe to follow and good result. Needed something else other than the mozzarella as I didn’t get any flavour of cheese. Will add some provolone cheese next time. We scored it 8 out of 10.
