Recipe: English Muffin Pizza – SUPER SIMPLE!
September 1st, 2009 | 
Author: If your going to make these, be prepared to make a lot! I usually make 2 packages if English Muffins! I would love to see photos of your finished product and other ways you might spice this little baby up!
Preheat your oven to 360 Degrees. Layout English muffins on a baking sheet.
Spread your favorite pasta sauce on each half. This is a great meal to get the kid involved in. That is the hand of my 7 year old.
Next, I sprinkle on a LITTLE Salt, Pepper, Onion Powder, Oregano and Parmesan Cheese. I stress a LITTLE because they are small and the spices can over power them very quickly if you put to much.
The most important part is next! Top with your favorite shredded cheese. I like to use a mix of cheeses. Kraft makes a 6 Cheese Italian blend which is my usual choice. I like a lot of cheese!
Bake for about 10 minutes. Just watch for your cheese to be nice and melted. This was the best finished picture I could get because my family always attacks them! I almost didn't get one.
