    Unfortunately you don’t buy groceries by the portion in the US. Not sure if that’s done in Europe either. The cost of the ingredients you buy is baked into the cost of the pizza. Just because you have leftovers doesn’t make it cheaper.

      That’s only true if you don’t use up the leftovers. Flour lasts a long time and has countless uses, there’s lots of recipes that use pureed tomatos (which also last a fair amount of time in the fridge, and months in the freezer) and nothing could be easier than using up cheese.

      Alternatively, just make more pizza. If you have a party, it shouldn’t be too hard to use up most of the ingredients.
