Easy Meal: English Muffin Pizzas


Don't waste your money on those frozen mini pizzas! They aren't healthy, and they really don't taste the best.

Why not make your own pizza?

Maybe you don't have the time or ingredients to make your own pizza dough, but that doesn't have to stop you.  You can just use something you may already have - English muffins!



Things you'll need:
1 knife
1 spoon
1 cutting board
1 oven (this is a great toaster oven recipe!)
1 cookie sheet (or any other oven-safe dish)

Ingredients:
2 English muffins (if you don't have English muffins, you could substitute with biscuits, buns, etc.)
4 tbs pizza or pasta sauce
1/2 cup shredded cheese

Step 1:
Heat the oven to 350F degrees.

Step 2:
Cut the muffins in half.

Step 3:
Using a spoon, put about 1 heaping tbs. of sauce onto each slice of the muffin and spread it evenly.

Step 4:
Top each muffin with your desired amount of shredded cheese.

Step 5:
Place the muffins on your oven-safe dish and put them in for around 12 minutes. You really only need to leave them in long enough for the cheese to melt and for the muffin to be thoroughly heated.

You're done! This recipe is laughably simple and you could easily add your own variations. Try topping your mini pizzas with some ham, pepperoni, olives - you name it!
