Pizza-in-a-Blanket


Most mothers strive to make nutritious, fun lunches for their children.  This can be an enjoyable challenge in the summertime because you are not limited to what you can pack into their lunch boxes.

This happy little meal is a spin-off on the favorite "pigs in a blanket."


It couldn't be easier, people. The kids could probably make these themselves.  Get them to help assemble - they'll love it.  You need three ingredients:

crescent rolls
pepperoni
mozzarella cheese sticks

Roll out the crescent roll dough and lay a few slices of pepperoni on top.  Cut a mozzarella cheese stick in half and lay at the widest end.  Roll up toward the point and bake according to the directions on the can of crescent rolls.

You could serve this with marinara or pizza sauce - or not, as we did.

Add some fruit and a glass of milk and you've got yourself a healthy lunch that your kiddos won't mind devouring.  Victory.
