Elementary Caprese puff pastry pie: easier to prepare than pizza
Caprese is not only a salad, but also a hearty pie. It is based on ordinary puff pastry that you can buy at any store. All you need to do is chop the ingredients for the filling, lay them out, and bake them.
The idea of making an elementary caprese puff pastry pie was published on the Instagram page of food blogger Polina with the nickname polli cooking. It's even easier than classic pizza.
