Ingredients
  

  • 8 plain whole wheat bagels

  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

No-Cook Veggie Pizza Sauce

  • 1 (14 oz) can crushed tomatoes
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dried oregan or Italian seasoning
  • 3/4 cup finely grated carrot
  • 1 cup finely chopped baby spinach or a mixture of any chopped vegetables you like

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper or foil.
  • Slice bagels in half. Place bagel half on the baking sheet and cook in the oven until lightly toasted, 3 to 4 minutes. Set aside.
  • Top bagels with a couple tablespoons of sauce, about a 1/4 cup of cheese, and then decorate with the colorful chopped veggies as desired.
  • Bake until cheese is melted, about 10 minutes. Serve warm.

No-Cook Veggie Pizza Sauce

  • Add crushed tomatoes to a large bowl and stir in the salt, garlic powder, and dried herbs.
  • Stir in the vegetables. (You can use as much or as little as you'd like.) Store in a jar or airtight container in the refrigerator for 7 to 10 days.
