Pizza Mummies with Veggie Sauce
A fun an yummy snack, lunch, or spooky dinner that kids can make!
Ingredients
- 2 whole wheat or regular English muffins, split in half
- 1/2 cup pizza or marinara sauce
- 1/2 cup broccoli florets frozen and defrosted or fresh and steamed
- 2 Tbsp pumpkin or squash puree or any veggies you want (see below for examples)
- 4 string cheese (mozzarella cheese sticks)
- sliced black or pimento stuffed olives
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Place English muffin halves on a baking sheet and bake for 5 minutes to toast.
- Finely chop the broccoli then add to the pizza sauce along the pumpkin (or whatever veggies you choose). Stir to combine.
- Remove the English muffins from the oven and spread a heaping spoonful of sauce onto each half. Peel cheese sticks into strings and arrange them on top of each English muffin like mummy bandages. Place 2 olive halves on top of the cheese to create eyes.
- Bake for 3 minutes or until cheese is melted. Enjoy!
Notes
*You can add any veggies you have to the sauce. I've done finely chopped baby spinach, grated carrot, finely chopped peppers, etc.
**If you don't want to use olives for the eyes, you can cut any other veggie, such as carrots, cucumber, or peppers, into a small circle shape.
***You can also cook these pizzas in an air fryer. Toast the English muffins at 375 for 3 minutes then cook at 375 until the cheese is melted, 2 to 3 more minutes.
