You need

To buy

1 cup canned crushed tomatoes
4 ounces, torn or shredded fresh mozzarella or cheddar cheese

From your shelf

2 English muffins, Rockin' Grains

Staples

2 tablespoons olive oil
to taste salt
to taste pepper
1 clove, minced garlic

Split both English muffins and lay them cut side up on a sheet pan. Brush each half with 1/2 tablespoon olive oil and toast under the broiler on high until golden and crisp, about 3 minutes, watching so they do not burn.
While the muffins toast, combine 1 cup crushed tomatoes, the minced garlic, 1/2 tablespoon olive oil, salt, and pepper in a small bowl and stir.
Divide the tomato mixture among the four muffin halves, spreading to the edges. Top each with a quarter of the cheese, torn into pieces.
Return the pan to the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes until the cheese melts and the tomato bubbles at the edges. Serve hot.

Note Swap in jarred pesto or olive tapenade for the tomato if you have it. Leftovers keep for one day wrapped in foil; reheat gently in a low oven. Serve alongside a simple green salad or arugula dressed with lemon.
