Pizza Toasties

A makeshift pizza without any real pizza ingredients.


The trick to making this delicious little pizza-esque meal is to forget every rule about making pizza. I didn't want to go shopping but I was craving pizza. I grabbed what I could find in the pantry and fridge to make these "makeshift pizzas". Kind of like those "pizza-quickies" your mom used to make with English muffins.

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients: 
Sliced Bread (I used two slices of Udi's GF bread)
Spaghetti Sauce
Shredded Cheese (any flavor works really)
Baby Spinach
Hot Sauce (optional)

You could use any toppings you wanted really. The main goal is to NOT go shopping for ingredients. Peppers, sliced meats, olives, etc. would all be good.

A toaster oven is the preferred method of baking these, but a regular oven would work.

Directions:

Pre-toast the bread to the point where it just about to become toast.

Top pre-toasted bread with spaghetti sauce, cheese and whichever toppings you chose/found.

Toast in toaster oven for 10-15 minutes or until cheese is melted and toppings are hot.

Top with hot sauce or ranch dressing or whatever else you enjoy on your pizza.

Enjoy the simplicity of pizza with the convenience of your current kitchen.
