This pepperoni pizza bites recipe was created in partnership with Florida Dairy Farmers. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
I’m always searching for a quick and easy snack after school every day. My daughter is always hungry when she comes home and wants something hearty. I wanted to make sure that she was getting something that would fill her up but that wasn’t junk food. These pepperoni pizza bites are just that! What I love about this recipe is that we can make them together after school. I can also make them ahead of time and save them for another day.
