Sunnys Easy English Muffin Spinach Alfredo Pizza Recipes

SUNNY'S EASY BLACK AND WHITE DESSERT PIZZA

Steps:

• Put a pizza stone in the oven and preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
• For the crust: Using some flour, roll out the pizza dough to a large circle about 1/4 inch thick; dock with a fork all around. Transfer to the pizza stone and cook until the crust is light golden brown and slightly rigid, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and turn the oven off.
• For the white side: While the crust is baking, fold together the cream cheese, granulated sugar, vanilla and lemon zest in a medium bowl until combined. Set aside.
• For the black side: In a medium bowl, toss together the milk chocolate chips, bittersweet chocolate chips and pecans.
• Leaving a rim around the crust, spread one half of the crust with the cream cheese mixture and top with the marshmallows. Sprinkle the other half with the chocolate mixture (again, leaving a rim of crust). Brush the melted butter on the rim and sprinkle just the rim with the cinnamon sugar.
• Put the pizza back in the warm oven. Cook until the marshmallows and chocolate are melted, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle a tiny pinch of sea salt over the entire pizza. Slice and serve warm.

ENGLISH MUFFIN PIZZAS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring, until softened and starting to brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in the carrots, peppers and zucchini and cook, stirring, until softened, about 15 minutes. Add the garlic, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Continue to cook, stirring, until the vegetables are lightly browned, for 10 minutes.
• Stir in the crushed tomatoes. Add 1 cup water to the empty tomato can and pour into the pot. Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer until the vegetables are very soft, the sauce has thickened slightly and the rawness from the canned tomatoes has mellowed, about 20 minutes. Puree the vegetables with a hand blender or transfer to a blender and puree until smooth, holding down the lid with a kitchen towel to prevent the hot sauce from spraying. Season with additional salt and pepper if needed and cool. You will have about 5 cups of sauce.
• While the sauce simmers, lay the English muffin halves in a single layer on a baking sheet and lightly toast in a toaster oven set to broil or under an oven broiler, 2 to 3 minutes. Spread the top of each muffin with 1 to 2 tablespoons of sauce. Combine the 2 cheeses and sprinkle over the sauce. To serve as a snack right away, add your desired toppings and place the assembled pizzas under the broiler in the oven or toaster oven until the cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes.
• To make ahead: Place the entire tray of mini pizzas in the freezer and freeze until hard, about 1 hour. Stack in a plastic freezer bag until ready to eat. To reheat, place the frozen pizzas on a piece of heavy-duty foil, add any toppings you like and bake in a toaster oven at 400 degrees F until golden, hot and the cheese is melted, 13 to 15 minutes.
