Stuffed Pizza Mini-Bagels

• 12 lb lean ground beef
• 12 lb ground lean pork
• 1 cup chopped onion
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 12 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
• 12 teaspoon dried basil leaves
• 1 cup Ragu pizza sauce or 1 cup pizza sauce, of your choice
• 14 cup parmesan cheese
• 2 cups grated mozzarella cheese
• 1 teaspoon brown sugar (optional)
• salt and pepper, to taste
• 8 miniature bagels (I used Thomason's)

1. Brown the ground beef and ground pork in a frying pan over medium-high heat, breaking the ground meats into small pieces as they brown.
2. Add the chopped onion to the meat and brown until the onions are soft and translucent.
3. Add garlic and stir for a minute.
4. Stir in oregano and basil.
5. Turn off the heat and add the pizza sauce, mix well.
6. Add the parmesan cheese and mix until well-blended.
7. Add optional sugar, if desired.
8. Finally, fold the mozzarella cheese in, all at once.
9. You want the mixture to be just warm enough to slightly melt the cheese, binding the meat mixture together.
10. Taste the mixture and season with salt and pepper to taste.
11. Split the bagels and heap the meat mixture on the bottom, and put the top on.
12. I nuked them for 15 seconds on high, which was just perfect to melt the cheese and warm the bagel.
13. You could also bake them in an oven.
14. To freeze, follow through step five, then place on a cookie sheet in the freezer.
15. When frozen, wrap in plastic and place in Zip Loc bags.
16. Reheat in oven or microwave.
