Family Friendly Mini-Pizza:
• 1 Whole-grain English muffin, split
• About 1/3 cup Shredded skim-milk mozzarella cheese (soy works well)
• Slices of thinly sliced tomato or 2 tbs. tomato or pizza sauce
• Fake sausage, chorizo, mock pepperoni or cooked ground turkey
• Toppings: lightly sautéed spinach, mushrooms, green peppers, onions or fresh pineapple chunks.
Directions:
1. After fork-slicing the English muffin, apply the sauce with a spoon or add tomato slices. Go edge to edge. Lightly salt and pepper.
2. Now’s the time to sneak in some ground flax seeds. They’ll never know.
3.Next, add a meat substitute or leave them plain.
4. Add chopped vegetables. (Try lightly sautéing spinach then hide it under the cheese)
5. Top with cheese. (There are marvelous soy cheeses on the market. Give them a try.)
6. Place your completed pizza on an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet in an oven preheated to 350 degrees or in a toaster oven.
7. Bake for 5 to 10 minutes, depending on how crispy your child likes his pizza, or until the cheese is a golden brown color.
8. Add some fresh basil and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and enjoy.
