NFL 2019/2020 Season

Week Seventeen

Football Pizza Pops & Dipping Sauce

Our final recipe of Regular Season! I can’t believe we have reached the end of the regular season already! Superbowl is just around the corner and ANY of these 17 recipes will be a hit at your SuperBowl Party! especially our final recipe. Football shaped Pizza Pops!!! Who doesn’t love a good pizza pop.

Yes, you can BUY pizza pops premade, but c’mon how many times have you pooped one of those in the microwave and the middle been cold? or how about they aren’t shaped like a FOOTBALL! plus you can put anything in these and they are honestly fun to make! If you have kids – this would be a fun family dinner idea. Use any cookie cutter for shapes!

So we made traditional Pepperoni and Cheese and then for those who think Pineapple is OK on Pizza, a little Hawaiian option. But seriously, add bbq sauce chicken and onion for a little BBQ chicken or Pepperoni Green pepper and Mushroom for a Deluxe style. Put whatever you want in your pizza Pop!

Here are the Roster details for this weeks Line up!

Ingredients:

• 2 Pizza Dough cans cut into football shapes (Makes 13 shapes per can)

Instructions:

1. In a frying pan on high heat – cook the pepperoni so it gets a little crispy on the edges

5. Take the other half of the footballs and stretch them over the top of your ingredient side. Flip over and pinch the sides closed
