had it every day…CAUSE ITS AWESOME!!!
A nice snack. I would definitely recommend toasting the bread first. If you’re not worried about calories then a smear a dab of butter on it. That will help the sauce and the veggies. I made this with red and green peppers, onions, pepperoni and olives. I also added some Italian seasoning. I think adding the seasoning really helps with the flavor. Again, I definitely recommend toasting the bread. It’s an extra step, but it helps to keep the bread firm.
For a simpler version, you can use tomato sauce, mozarella, pepperoni, and a few dashes of oregano and pop the mini pizza into the microwave for 1 minute so the cheese can melt.
If you want it crispier, you can toast the english muffin first before putting it in the microwave.
These were brilliant! I made them for my fiance for lunch and gave him 2 to eat and he loved them. I added some diced ham and mini pepperonis to them too. They were soooo good.
This is a great! I’m going to make sure I have these ingredients (and a few others) in my house all the time. The only problem…..I ate too many!!!
It is so great to have a new lunch idea for myself and the kids! This was delicious and such a great base to work with. Versatility is key with our family. Cheeze pizza for one, veggies for another, and for myself I used a few tamed jalapeno’s and black olives for a little more robust flavor. This will become a guilt free mainstain on our menu rotation. THANK YOU!
I mixed it up and put on some spinach and shopped mushroom to add some flavor and healthy vitamin A and iron!
I love this recipe. It?s fast, tasty and healthy too.
why does it say pizza snacks if shes making something completely different!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
On top of being quick to make, these taste wonderful!! Thank You!!!
