Ingredients

Thomas Light Whole Grain English muffin
2 tb shredded 2% sharp cheddar cheese
1.5 tb Fat free cottage cheese
1.5 tb tomato sauce
Directions
Thomas' Light Whole Grain English Muffins - these things rock my world!! 100 cal, 1g fat, 8g fiber, 7 grams protein.
They taste great - and I absolutely love to make mini pizzas with them: Lightly toast english muffin. Spoon 1tb shredded 2% cheese (I use kraft 2% sharp cheddar) on each half of the english muffin, spoon .75 tb fat free cottage cheese on each half, spread .75 tb no sugar added pasta sauce on top of the cheeses on each half of the muffin (hunt's garlic and herb, for 86 cents a can at walmart, is my favorite - 40 cal per half cup).
You can cook in the oven at this point, but I just microwave for 33 sec. The cottage cheese melts and gets all gooey, and since the sauce is spread on top of the cheese, it keeps the english muffin from getting too soggy.
There's lunch - high fiber, high protein, low fat, low cal! Plenty of caloric room for a salad or side of your favorite veggies, and even some fruit. You can also add toppings to your pizza - cut up veggies, or soy/tofu crumbles in your pasta sauce, etc.

I'd probably use light ricotta cheese. Also, probably will try to find some english muffins at trader joe's, something organic, no preservatives, etc. Roasted tomatoes would be good on this...Spinach... Garlic is a must! - cut a clove in half and rub on the bread before putting it in the oven... - 2/12/09

I was in hurry and seasoned the tomato sauce, but it didn't have time to blend well, so mine came out kind of bland, but still was good. Never had the idea to use cottage cheese on pizza, and I think I will make some homemade sauce and freeze in small portions to make it even quicker. Thanks! - 3/19/12
