Pizza Bagel
This is the easiest thing in life.
It’s a pizza bagel!
It takes 4 little, bitty minutes to make.
So. There is a bagel place that opened in Houston and they make a pizza bagel that is rather epic. It’s all crispy, melted cheese, which is what I’m all about. I thought I wasn’t really a bagel person, but I’m now having a mid-life crisis because I think I am a bagel person. I’ve been enjoying them SO much lately. Hence, this pizza bagel recipe.
But for serious. Can we even call it a recipe? I mean, it’s like 5 ingredients. So simple.
And so simple is so good on nights when you feel a wee-bit overwhelmed. Like yesterday…I had a tough day at work and when I got home I needed something super quick for dinner that took zero brainpower to make. We ended up having leftover chili that I had frozen a couple weeks ago, but had we not had frozen chili, pizza bagels would have been the way to go.
So we ate chili instead and then I turned on Fuller House and balled when DJ was crying about everyone leaving her. No one is leaving me. But I was just feeling emotional. Take me back to childhood.
But since we can’t go back to childhood. For now, I recommend dropping everything and pizza-fying your bagel.
