A frozen cheese pizza is one of the cheapest hot dinners going, and a fried egg laid over the top turns it into something a little more filling. The cost below is the live sum of every ingredient at its cheapest current price across the retailers we track.
- Bake the frozen pizza according to its package directions, usually around 12 to 15 minutes in a hot oven.
- While the pizza bakes, melt the margarine in a small pan over medium heat and fry the egg to your liking — a runny yolk works well over the cheese.
- Slide the cooked pizza onto a board, top with the fried egg, and season to taste.
Two teaspoons of salt is a lot for a single pizza, especially over a cheese topping that is already salty — add a pinch to the egg and hold the rest until you taste, rather than seasoning all at once. Letting the pizza rest a minute before cutting keeps the cheese from sliding off.
