Instructions

For the Base:
• Heat up your leftover rice, you need 3 cups.
• In a large bowl mix your rice, eggs, butter, shredded cheese, salt and pepper. Mix well until it comes together into a smooth mixture.
• Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
• Scoop the mixture into 4 piles on the cookie sheet. Use a spoon (or your hands) to shape the piles into circles of equal size, and width. Make sure you press it together tightly. Smooth the edges.
• Place in a preheated 450 degree oven and cook for 7 to 8 minutes.
Putting it all together:
• Remove the crusts from the oven.
• Top them with the sauce.
• Top with cheese.
• Top with whatever optional toppings you desire. I did one with plain cheese. One with only green peppers. One with red and white onions and garlic. And one with everything.
• Place back in the oven for another 5 to 7 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and place on plates.
• Serve with a big old GF smile!
