Both of the boys really like to help in the kitchen. Any time they can pull their chairs up to the counter to help out, they are happy campers. Tonight, we made pizza bears or Mickey Mouse Pizza as Billy called them. The recipe is super easy and fun. It makes for an easy dinner. I served the pizza with grapes which the boys love. The grapes went first then the pizza. Billy’s style was to pick it up just like a slice of pizza. Baden liked to pick off the pepperoni and olives and then eat the pizza. We had a lot of fun.
Pizza Biscuit Bears
1 tube (16.3 ounces) large refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
12 slices pepperoni
2 tablespoons shredded mozzarella cheese
12 slices ripe olives
1 tablespoon chopped green pepper
1 jar (12 ounces) sliced pimientos, drained
1 can (8 ounces) pizza sauce, warmed
Separate biscuits; place six biscuits 3 in. apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Cut each remaining biscuit into six pieces; roll each into balls. Attach two balls to each whole biscuit for ears; pinch dough to seal.
Decorate each bear with pepperoni slice on each ear, mozzarella cheese for fur, olive slices for eyes, green pepper for nose and two pimiento strips for mouth. Bake at 375 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with pizza sauce. Serves: 6
**The boys like pepperoni and olives so that is all we used, but you could use just about anything that you like on a pizza. It’s just a fun dinner to make with the kids.
What a great idea. I can see why the boys loved it.
How fun! Billy will have to teach my kids how to make them next time your in town.
Cute idea 🙂
I love those pizza bears they are so cute! One great way to get kids to eat too. I loved having the boys helping me when I am with them. Everyone gets to stir the batter :).
That is SOO cute! I will surely be trying this!
