Kids will love these ground
beef and cheese pizza bagels.
Beef
Pizza Bagels
- 4 plain bagels, halved
1/2 pound cooked, lean ground beef
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup pizza or spaghetti sauce
- Spread top of each bagel
halp with 1 tablespoon sauce. Top with approximagely 3 tablespoons
cooked ground beef. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon cheese.
- Place bagels on cookie
sheet sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.
- Bake at 350°F (175°C)
for 10 minutes or until cheese is melted and bagel is golden
brown. (Or, place bagel in 400°F (205°C) toaster oven
for 10 minutes.)
Serves 4.
Tip: Especially for the
kids - Ask mom or dad to cook an extra pound of lean ground beef
ahead of time. After drippings are poured off, separate the ground
beef into four plastic baggies and keep in the freezer. These
can be taken out of the freezer, reheated in the microwave, and
used in this recipe for a short cut.
