Instructions
- Preheat the oven or toaster oven to 350°F.

Notes
- Tip 1: For extra flavor, toast the bagel halves lightly before adding sauce and cheese.
- Tip 2: Store leftover pizza sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- Tip 3: You can substitute the vegan mozzarella with any dairy-free shreds, or use nutritional yeast for a cheesier flavor without shreds.
- Tip 4: To save time, make a larger batch of pizza sauce and keep it on hand for quick snacks.
- Tip 5: Pair with a fresh green salad or vegetable sticks for a balanced meal.
