English Muffin Pizza

English Muffin Pizzas are great for lunch. Split one muffin in half for each serving. Top with ham and pineapple, chicken, pepperoni, veggies, whatever... I love to make these with extra sharp cheddar cheese. But I would be embarrassed to tell you how many I can eat at one sitting!

Ingredients:

(for one)

1 english muffin, split in half

6 tablespoons bottled pizza sauce

your favorite toppings

shredded or slices of cheese

Directions:

Set oven to broil.

Place the halved english muffins on baking sheet.

Spoon pizza sauce over muffins; arrange toppings over sauce and cover with cheese.

Broil 3 to 5 minutes, until cheese is bubbly and edge of english muffin is golden brown.

Skillet Noodle Pizza

Kids really love this for dinner!
I've made this skillet dinner from time-to-time for years, but can take no credit for the good taste. The recipe is from Women's Day magazine, 1996. I don't add or take away any ingredients; it's perfect just the way it is. Just wanted to share!

Ingredients:
8 cups water
4 packages Ramen Noodles, any flavor (I use chicken)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup spaghetti sauce
4 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded (1 cup)
17 slices pepperoni, cut into 1/4- inch strips
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

Directions:
Heat broiler of oven.
Bring water to boil in a 2 1/2 to 3 1/2- quart pot; add noodles and cook, stirring occasionally (3 minutes or until tender); drain in colander.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet.
When hot, add noodles and press evenly to cover bottom of pan; cook 2 minutes or until underneath is browned.
Spread sauce over noodles, then sprinkle with cheese, pepperoni and oregano.

(if skillet handle is wood or any material that can't hold up to the heat of broiler, wrap it in a double layer of foil to prevent handle from scorching)

Broil 4 to 5 inches from heat source 2 minutes or until top is bubbly and cheese starts to brown.
Let cool about 5 minutes before cutting in wedges to serve.
