English muffin pizzas

Ingredients

  • 1 whole-wheat English muffin
  • 2 Tbsp. of low sodium pasta sauce or tomato paste
  • ¼ c. of shredded cheese, ideally mozzarella or parmesan
  • ¼ c. of frozen spinach
  • Optional: garlic powder, onion powder, dried basil, salt and pepper to taste

Directions
Find your closest convenience store or gas station and rummage for above ingredients. Upon returning home, preheat toaster oven or conventional oven to 350°F.

Place frozen spinach in the microwave for 45 seconds to one minute. Transfer frozen spinach to paper towel and squeeze out excess moisture. Season to taste with spices if available.

Remove desired amount of English muffins from packaging. Carefully slice in half.

Cover each half with 1 Tbsp. of tomato sauce, 1-2 Tbsp frozen spinach, and 2 Tbsp shredded cheese. Place on a foil lined baking sheet or toaster oven tray. Bake until cheese is melted and bubbly. Pat yourself on the back for avoiding the take-out trap.
