This fun PIZZA ON A STICK brings life to any party and flavor to any tailgate! A fun appetizer for both kids and adults to enjoy.
Hey friends! It’s Becky from The Cookie Rookie back with another recipe! I’m always in search of quick and easy snacks and appetizers to bring to parties. I’m married to a huge sports fan, so it feels like we are always attending a tailgate of one kind or another. No matter the time of year, we have a football, baseball, basketball, or hockey team to cheer for. Our son already has more sports gear at 6 months old than I can count! Pat’s favorite part of viewing sports is the actual WATCHING of the sports…but for me it’s the eating. There’s always a great dip or finger food to enjoy. This Pizza on a Stick is my new favorite dish to bring to the get together because it’s easy, fun, and so tasty. It doesn’t hurt that they’re doused in garlic butter!! I know you’re gonna love these.
It doesn’t get easier than these Pizza Kebabs. I love to keep it simple with just pepperoni and basil, but you could layer on all your favorite toppings. It would be so fun to make a Hawaiian version, or Meat Lovers, or even Veggie! The possibilities are endless. Aren’t these just so fun!
I love that this is a recipe that both kids and adults will love. It can be an appetizer or even an entire meal. Enjoy!
