Fast and Easy Pizza Recipe


I made this recipe up the other day when the kids were hungry and kept asking for pizza. They loved it and ate the whole thing.  There wasn’t a single piece left for my husband.

 I do not like using processed foods, but this recipe uses the few processed foods that do enter my house.

Fast and Easy Pizza

One roll of crescent rolls

½ cup spaghetti sauce

¾ cup low fat mozzarella cheese

¼ cup chopped fresh or canned mushrooms

¼ cup sliced onions

¼ cup sliced olives

¼ cup pineapple bits

1 mini fresh pepper sliced

(any other pizza topping you like)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Unroll crescent rolls on a tray and seal openings between crescents closed. You can use some waxed paper under the crescent rolls to make clean up fast and easy too.

Now, spread spaghetti sauce on pizza dough evenly, next the cheese. Now add all the healthy toppings you want. Put pizza in the oven for about 7 minutes.  Cheese should be melted and the dough looks almost finished cooking. Now turn on the broiler on low for another 7 minutes. But keep your eye on the pizza. Everyone’s oven is a little different and it could burn easily with the broiler. Once the spaghetti sauce starts to dry and cheese is getting nicely drowned take the pizza out and let it cool for a couple minutes. Finally, enjoy with a healthy salad of your choice for a fast and easy healthy meal.
