Vegetarian Mini Pizza Muffins Recipe

English muffins make a great mini pizza base.

They are inexpensive, fast to cook, tasty, and best of all, portion controlled for those of us watching our portion sizes.

Although this is a vegetarian recipe, those who like meat on their pizzas can add some shaved lean ham or bacon (visible fat removed of course) if they prefer. If you're trying to lose weight, we suggest you stick with the low fat cheese though.
