Dudes love appetizers. Dudes love pizza. Most dudes like English Muffins. How about the best of all three? Sure, why not. Watch as Adam and Sean take this British breakfast bread and Italian-ize it.
Oh, and instead of one or two kinds of pizza, you and your bros can customize it to whatever each person likes. This is also a great way to put leftover lunch meats or veggies to good use, Dude.
English muffin halves | 12 | |
Marinara pizza sauce | 1 Cup (16 tbs) | |
Shredded mozzarella cheese | 8 Ounce | |
Olive oil | 6 Teaspoon |
GETTING READY
1. Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees F.
MAKING
2. Start with your basic cheese version (which may be good enough as is for kids or picky dudes).
3. Split the English Muffins and lay flat on a baking sheet. Drizzle and brush each with a half teaspoon of Olive Oil.
4. Then add a tablespoon of pizza sauce (pour into the middle, then spread to the edge with your spoon). Top with mozzarella cheese.
5. Put into the oven for 8-10 minutes until the cheese(s) melt.
SERVING
6. Top / garnish with any fresh veggies or herbs and a light drizzle of Olive Oil. These will certainly be a party fave from here on out, Broseph.
But whatever you do, don’t slam the oven door or you’ll hear it from Sean.
NOTES:
From here is where your customization kicks in. Exciting, huh? Add whatever proteins you want, such as bacon or ham, etc, then veggies and top with any additional cheese. If you want to use fresh basil or greens, be sure to add that AFTER they come out of the oven or they’ll be burned, gross and you’ll look like an arse.
