Hamotzi? Or does it depend whether or not i have a seudah kvua (a permanent meal)?

Answer:
There is a big dispute whether there is such a thing as "mezonos bread" which looks and
tastes almost like regular bread. I ascribe to the position that this is hamotzi and requires
netilas
yadayim
even
if
one
eats
a
small
amount.
I feel that pizza is a safek hamotzi- with most opinions considering it to be hamotzi. I
therefore advise people who eat one slice of pizza to make hamotzi on a slice of bread
