With only 3 ingredients, a toaster, and a microwave, you can make mini pizzas in your dorm room in about 5 minutes. English muffin pizzas are so simple that I can hardly call this a recipe, but they’re a great snack or small meal.
As far as ingredients go, you just need an English muffin, some pizza or marinara sauce, and some cheese. I typically use mozzarella, but if I happen to have parmesan or ricotta on hand, I’ll use that, too. They’re completely customizable, so feel free to add sautéed veggies, pepperoni, or any of your other favorite pizza toppings.
I usually eat my English muffin pizzas with a side of carrot sticks, steamed veggies, fruit, or Greek yogurt for some extra protein. Hope you enjoy!
- 1 whole wheat English muffin
- Pizza sauce
- Mozzarella cheese (or ricotta/parmesan if you're feeling fancy!)
-
Toast English muffin.
-
Spread pizza sauce onto the two halves.
-
Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top and microwave just until melted. Enjoy!
*At home, I toast the English muffins AND melt the cheese in the toaster oven, but since all I have at school is a pop-up toaster, I toast the English muffin halves and then microwave them after I add the cheese. Works both ways!
Looks like a fun weekend! I’m going to have to try those English muffin pizzas.
Thanks, Anna! They’re a really quick and healthy alternative to the real thing!
