Easy Caprese Breakfast Pizza

Written by Chef Shane Russ, Owner of Russo’s Cooking Personal Chef Service

On Easter Sunday my father-in-law requested that I cook for the family. Being as I am physically afraid of him, I said yes. :)   I decided that I needed to do something easy. I rummaged through my collection of recipes and came across this gem from Lisa Lillien. You might know her as Hungry Girl. I made one addition to take this healthy pizza over the top. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

1 light english muffin

2 slices of tomato

1 oz Black Forest ham

6 fresh basil leaves

1 piece of light string cheese

1 tsp light butter

1/2 tsp crushed garlic (omit if you like. I did!)

salt and pepper

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees

In a small dish, combine butter and garlic; set aside.

Split English Muffin and spread the butter on each half.

Place strips of cheese on each muffin half.

Place basil then tomato on each half.

Place on a backing sheet sprayed lightly with nonstick spray.

Bake in the oven for around 15 minutes or until the tomato starts to soften.

Salt and Pepper to taste and enjoy!
