Wheat Pizza Muffins Recipe!
With summer and bikini season quickly approaching, who isn’t trying to slim down and lose a couple pounds? I have recently joined Weight Watchers (again) so I am trying to stick to it without depriving myself. The Weight Watchers Wheat Pizza Muffins recipe saves on calories but satisfies my pizza cravings.
Having worked in the restaurant industry for 30+ years as well as having my own snack bar, there are a ton of recipes that I love to make, but that need to be lightened up. The Wheat Pizza Muffins recipe is also a family favorite because who wants to make two different meals? Not I!
Makes 2 servings.
Ingredients:
2 whole wheat light english muffins, split in half (SP – 3 per each English Muffin)
1 cup of pizza sauce (or more as desired) (SP – 3 per half cup) You can use regular Prego spaghetti sauce if you’d like for only 2 SP.
1 cup of fat free shredded mozzarella cheese (or more as desired) (SP – 1 per 1/2 cup)
1 large tomato, sliced into 8
¼ cup of spinach, roughly chopped (or more as desired)
Optional ingredients:
Pinch of dried basil, pinch of dried oregano
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees fahrenheit.
2. On each slice of english muffins, add 3-4 teaspoons of pizza sauce, layer with a tomato slice, then layer with one or teaspoons of spinach, top with a layer of 2-3 teaspoons of cheese. If desired, sprinkle a pinch of basil and oregano to each pizza.
3. Place pizza muffins on a non greased baking pan and put in the oven for 7 minutes, or until cheese melts.

**Can be served hot or cold. Feel free to omit tomatoes or spinach and replace with other pizza toppings if desired.**
