Pizza Muffins

Need a great easy to assemble meal that just about everyone is guaranteed to love?  Well here is a childhood favorite of mine that is easily customized to everyone's liking and very quick to cook. This is a great meal to make with your family, everyone can put some of their favorites on each muffin: sliced ham, pepperoni, sausage, onions, spinach, bell pepper, olives, mushrooms, etc. The possibilities are endless, below is the basic recipe without any of the toppings.

Pizza Muffins: Serves 2

2 English Muffins (I use Thomas' Light English Muffins)
1/2C Tomato Sauce
1/2tsp Dried Oregano
1/4tsp Garlic Powder
Salt & Pepper
2oz Mozzarella Cheese (I use Part Skim Milk)

Mix the tomato sauce, oregano, garlic powder and salt & pepper together and set to the side. Split the English Muffins open and spread 2TB of sauce on the cut side of each muffin. Then top with any of your favorite toppings and sprinkle the cheese over it all. Place on a greased cookie sheet and bake at 375° for 10 minutes until the cheese has melted and started to brown. Remove from the oven let it sit for a minute then serve and enjoy.
