Ingredients for Arugula Blt Pizzas

  • 4 tablespoons marinara sauce
  • Whole Grain English Muffins
  • Arugula Leaf
  • Tomatoes
  • Turkey Bacon
  • Part Skim Mozzarella Cheese

How to Make Arugula Blt Pizzas

  1. Preheat your broiler to high heat.
  2. Spread 1 tablespoon of marinara sauce evenly over each of 4 English muffin halves.
  3. Top each muffin half with 1/4 cup arugula, 2 slices of tomato, and 1 tablespoon of cooked bacon crumbles.
  4. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of shredded mozzarella cheese over each pizza.
  5. Broil for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, keeping a close eye to prevent burning. The distance from the broiler may need to be adjusted depending on your oven (3-4 inches is a good starting point).

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
