Pizza Bites


Another Christmas has come and gone! We were truly blessed this year with great weather and time with our loved ones.....and of course lots of great food and presents! Both sides of our families decided to serve up a bunch of different appetizers for our meal this year, everyone pitched in by bringing a few different items and I think we all loved having this huge smorgasbord. One of the dishes I shared were these tasty little pizza bites. It's something I've had bookmarked for over a year now and again, wondering why I hadn't taken the time to try them out sooner. I'm a fan of all things pizza and these were sure to not disappoint! I've even been dreaming up other fillings I can stuff into these bite sized pizzas.

I only wish I would've gotten a picture of the inside of these for you to see. They're really easy to whip up....I guess you'll just have to make some and see for yourself!


Did you receive any fun foodie gifts for Christmas? I was excited to get these 2 cookbooks, along with $75 in Barnes & Noble gift cards (yay!). My parents also got me the ice cream maker attachment for my KitchenAid, I can't wait to try that out!


Pizza Bites

1/2 batch pizza dough
