Serves: 5 person(s)
Yield: 5 x pizza slices

Preparation Time: 10 mins
Cooking Time: 10 mins

Ingredients:

3 cup frozen mixed vegetables with mushrooms
5 slices Italian bread (per slice: 1 oz, or about 1" thick and 5" long)
1 Tbsp olive oil
1/2 cup prepared pizza sauce
1 cup finely chopped tomato
1/2 cup very finely diced onion
1 Tbsp dried oregano leaves
1 tsp garlic powder
2 1/2 Tbsp grated reduced-fat parmesan cheese

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350ºF and place oven rack in middle-high position.

Microwave frozen vegetables, then pat dry. Brush all bread slices lightly with oil and spread each with about 1-1/2 tablespoons sauce.

Combine all vegetables in a medium-sized bowl. Carefully spoon vegetable mixture equally onto bread slices. Sprinkle with oregano and garlic powder and then with cheese.

Bake in preheated oven about 5 to 7 minutes, until bread is brown on the edges and all vegetables are piping hot. Serve immediately.
