Air fryer pizza

[Zerpina]

As I have stated in a few threads where food comes up I don't eat a lot...

I've never been a big eater, basically take a normal portion of food and half it. I'm small and always have been.
Anyway, not the point. My favorite thing to do for a quick pizza fix is to take a frozen pizza, as I eat thin crust, and before freezing it, pre-slice it. Ziplock it up and yoink out a slice or possibly two, depending on if I have chips or fries with it. If not, then two slices and chuck them in the air fryer for about 6 minutes on high. Soft crust and it's done.

Does anyone else do anything similar, or am I just the weirdo?

Mine is just a makeshift pizza so to speak.

Some loaf bread slices topped with tomato sauce or even plain ketchup whatever is available at the moment. Grated cheese of course, with some onions, bell peppers and anything else in the freezer be it hotdogs, meatloaves or bacon.

I just popped it in the air fryer for a few minutes and…..viola!

I have done stuff like this before, not so much with ketchup but leftover pasta sauce.
As for bread, yeah, I used toasted light bread, or what we call biscuits here in the US (or scones I think that would be the UK equivalent)

and made a quick pizza bagel-type snack. Never a bad thing! :3

What I've done if I wanted a lazy way to make a chicken sandwhich, is take some precooked chicken strips or patties that are meant to be reheated in a microwave or oven, and instead use a toaster. It'll likely take about two full cycles with the knob turned all the way, but it tastes better than using a microwave and is more convenient and heats the house up less than the oven. When you live in a cheap apartment with AC that can barely keep up with the summer heat in South US, you really can't afford to run the oven very often.

Yes, something like that. I don't think it's weird at all. I can't eat fast and I can't eat a lot in one go. I just can't really predict how far I'll get. Sometimes it's half a pizza that's leftover, other times it's just 2 slices. So, I just bake the whole pizza and save what's left for another time. However, I do think it's better to cut off a piece from a frozen pizza and not bake the whole pizza. It taste less good when you heat it up for a 2nd time.

Wouldn't using a microwave be faster? i never tried frozen pizza before.

I don’t know if it’s just me because I feel like using an air fryer is as almost as using a conventional oven. Cooking the frozen pizza slower packs in the flavor of toppings more.

It would be faster... yes, but since you haven't, as you stated tried frozen pizza.
Much less cooking one in a microwave.
The crust turns into a gummy, rubbery, tasteless wad of chewing gum is the only way I can put it.

Yes, it's edible, but I wouldn't want to. :o

Microwave is only really useful for reheating pizza, not cooking it

Ah i see that makes sense

I air fry those microwaveable frozen pizzas. Way better than zapping them with controlled radiation.
