Once again, my blog has taken the back burner to the rest of life. (i.e. 5th grade, Mizzou football...) You get the idea!
As I was driving back to the lake this afternoon, I was 98% sure I would be headed right to my couch for a nap and a Bravo marathon (insert a Real Housewives title here). Instead, I decided to make a craft and cook!
As always, Pinterest never lets me down. A few weeks ago, I pinned a recipe for mini deep dish pizzas. I checked out Dashing Dish's post and started pulling ingredients from my fridge.
Now, let me just say that my little pizzas did not turn out as cute and bite-size as the photo above. Mine were a little... how should I put this? Bloated. Yes, they were bloated. Were they delicious? Absolutely. I will be having my leftovers for lunch tomorrow.
Here's the recipe Dashing Dish posted on her blog. Head over to her page here to see photos and read how she made her mini pizzas!
Ingredients:
- 3-4 whole wheat wraps (try to find ones with at least 3 grams of fiber or more per wrap)
- 1 (15oz) can pizza sauce (you may have some left over, depending on how much sauce you like)
- 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup parmesan cheese
- 48 mini turkey pepperonis (or the 12 whole turkey pepperoni’s, each cut into 4 even pieces)
- 1 tsp basil/oregano mix OR Italian seasoning
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- pinch of sweetener, (sugar/stevia/splenda)
- pinch of black pepper
*Put your own spin on these by adding anything that you would normally like on a pizza just before popping them in the oven!
Method:
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Spray a 12 count muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray.
2. Start by laying each tortilla out individually on a flat surface, and use an empty can, cup, or cookie cutter to cut 3-4 medium circles out of each wrap. I used the empty pizza sauce can, which worked well!
Have you met Mr. Gobble Gobble? He's the newest member of room 52! My students wrote what they were thankful for on each of his feathers. Now, he is gobbling proud in our classroom for the rest of the month.
How about those Missouri Tigers? Sorry Texas, just wasn't your day!
That looks delicious! It seems like something easy to make for just one person, which I'm definitely looking for ideas lately. I'm going to have to send your video of M2 to Nick. I'm sure he'd love to see it:) A blog should definitely come after school and tiger fun!!
