I expected it to be good, because how can you go wrong with sauce and cheese?! But this was delicious! The cream cheese adds a lot, I would have never thought to put it on there! I think I will be eating this for lunch every day. I put garlic powder and oregano on top of my cheese before I cooked it. Thanks for the awesome recipe!

Yummmmmmy! I used a whole wheat bagel (lightly toasted) and just realized I mixed the cream cheese and sauce instead of using them separate. Oops! Oh well LOL I added some Italian seasoning and garlic powder on top. Thanks for this quick, easy, tasty lunch!

Very quick and easy lunch. I used a plain mini Thomas bagel, Hunt's spaghetti/pasta sauce, and a little bit of fresh onion. The cream cheese sweetened the sauce up just the way I like it! I'll be sure to use this mix for homemade pizza from now on. Thanks!

easy quick and delish. Tried it with Panera Breads Asiago Cheese bagel. I used provolone for my cheese (I'm going to try this with Jarlsburg next time) and a good marinara sauce. Thanks for such a great treat.
