supply of bagels building in my freezer. The local food bank gets mounds of
bagels from a bagel shop, and includes them in their food bags. We do
enjoy bagels, but at times, they over populate my freezer. And, me be the frugal
chef at the moment, thinks, "Waste not want not." You know, I just can't seem to throw
anything away when I know there could be a quick, nutritious meal involved.
Also, standing stoically on my shelf, is more of that canned spaghetti sauce.
BAM! A new idea ensues. I quickly root through my freezer and notice tidbits
of ham slices, pepperoni, vegetable seasoning blend - and new bagel pizzas is
born!
8 bagels cut horizontally
1 can spaghetti sauce
1 cup Frozen Vegetable Blend
1/2 cup pepperoni
1/2 cup cut up ham
*other toppings you have on hand
1 1/2 cups of mozzarella cheese
2 tab. parmesan cheese
2 tsp. oregano
Spread 2 tab. sauce on each cut bagel. Top with 2 tab. shredded cheese. Decide on your favorite toppings for each family member. Top each bagel in moderation with your favorites. Don't forget the plain cheese for those who don't like toppings. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and a dash of oregano. Bake at 350 for about 8 min. until cheese melts. Now, all you need is a side salad and dinner is served!
