I wanted something light and quick, either for lunch or snacks. Just made this tonite again. BF loves this for a late snack. I also love to tweak my own recipes, as you can see in my notes below. I never make my recipes the same, depends what I have on hand. Makes them more appealing.

    Notes: May be served with pizza or chili sauce. May also be served with a small salad on the side. Ham may be sustituted for the pepperoni, but pepperoni gives it that extra kick or even also add some browned italian sausage. Extra meat won't hurt. Maybe also some finely chopped red pepper. This maybe be doubled, using a 9x13 pan - bake about 25-30 minutes. - - - Enjoy!
