Healthy Student Grub
As a student I cannot cook gourmet food everyday, so to ensure I get all of my vegetables and nutritional goodness I need to make sure I create really tasty, quick and healthy snacks to keep me going during the essay period. My pitta pizzas also reminded me of my time working in an American Camp. We would make our own pizzas using pitta bread and various other ingredients around a camp fire. I can remember the American kids telling me about the wacky pizzas they had tried at various diners. My pitta pizzas may not be as imaginative as the "Nacho Triple Cheese Mighty Meat Pizza", but they are satisfying and enable you to get through Aesthetics and Politics!

Saffy's Top Tip
Rather than go American, go Japanese and make a sushi style pizza with salmon and seaweed. Fresh and healthy wins the race. However, if you have finished your exams and you want to go Yankee Style then try melted white and milk chocolate with baked bananas and fresh cool whipped cream to serve on top.
