Notes
- If you only want to make enough for one or two people, save the rest of the filling for another meal, or make up the English muffins with the filling and wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and freeze them. Unwrap them, add cheese and sauce, and bake them from frozen (add 3-5 minutes to the cooking time) for a unique and delicious freezer meal, too.

- For the Parmesan cheese, you want fresh grated Parm. Either grate your own or buy it pre-grated from your store. Don't use the stuff in the green can for this recipe!
