Shona's quick 'n' easy mini-pizzas


Prep time: 5 minutes
Cook time: 5 minutes
Serves: 1

Ingredients (adjust to your taste)
Brown Rice Cakes (or any rice cakes) - x2 (per person)
Pasta sauce of your choice (I whipped some up with garlic, canned diced tomatoes, dried basil and onions) - 4 tbsp
Shredded low-fat mozzarella cheese (feta is nice too) - 4 tbsp
Shredded spinach - 1 tbsp
Canned pre-sliced olives (unless you prefer to slice them yourself) - 2 tbsp
Yellow onion, diced - 2 tbsp
Mushrooms, sliced & diced - 1 tbsp
Artichoke hearts, sliced - 1-2
Red or Green Bell Pepper, diced - 2 tbsp
Red pepper flakes (or finely chopped serranoes)
Whatever else you like to put on a regular pizza

Method
1. Put the pasta sauce on each rice cake
2. Add a thin layer of shredded mozzarella
3. Dress it up with the onions, olives, mushrooms, bell peppers, artichoke hearts (careful, you may run out of room! That's why there are 2!)
4. Put the shredded spinach on top
5. Finish it with the feta or shredded mozzarella
6. Bake in a toaster oven for 4-5 minutes, until the cheese is melty & just beginning to brown
7. Serve with a spring mix salad topped with berries, mango bits or other fresh fruit and enjoy!
