Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces whole wheat bagel
- 0.5 cup low sodium tomato sauce
- 4 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese
- 8 leaves fresh basil leaves
- 6 pieces cherry tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon dried oregano
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Slice the whole wheat bagels in half horizontally so that you have four open halves, and place them on a baking sheet, cut side up.
Spread roughly 2 tablespoons of low sodium tomato sauce evenly over each bagel half.
Slice the fresh mozzarella cheese into thin pieces and evenly distribute them over the sauce on each bagel half.
Cut the cherry tomatoes into slices and arrange them on top of the mozzarella cheese.
Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over each bagel half for added richness.
Sprinkle a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes, garlic powder, and dried oregano over each bagel half for seasoning.
Place the baking sheet into the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Once baked, remove the pizza bagels from the oven and garnish each one with a couple of fresh basil leaves.
Allow them to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your low sodium pizza bagels!
