Preheat the oven to 200°C. Crush or mince the garlic and chop the onion. Dice the bell pepper.
Heat a light drizzle of olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the garlic and half of the onion with the Mexican-style spices* and the passata for 4 - 5 minutes (see Tip). Season to taste with salt and pepper.
*Take care, this ingredient is spicy! Use as preferred.
Tip: if you don't like raw onion, fry all of it here.
Roll the pizza dough out onto a baking sheet (see Tip) and spread with the tomato sauce. Top with the grated cheese and bell pepper, then bake in the oven for 13 - 15 minutes.
Tip: the dough already comes in parchment paper, so no need to use any extra.
Finely chop the coriander. Halve and pit the avocado, then remove the skin and slice the flesh. Dice the tomato and crumble the Greek-style cheese. In a small bowl, combine the tomato with the coriander and the rest of the onion (see Tip). Add the extra virgin olive oil and white wine vinegar, mix well and season to taste with salt and pepper.
Tip: you can also serve the coriander separately so as to allow everyone to garnish as preferred.
Take the pizza out of the oven and top with the avocado and Greek-style cheese (see Tip).
Health Tip: this meal is high in both salt and calories. If you’re watching your intake of these, serve just half of the Greek-style cheese and keep the rest to use another time.
Serve the pizza on plates and garnish with the tomato salsa.
