Pizza Bites

SUPER BOWL Sunday is coming soon. Do you have your APPETIZER recipes ready? If not, these BITES are so easy! And your KIDS will love them. Perfect, right?


Pizza Bites
8 ounces cheddar, colby jack, or mozzarella cheese
3 (10-count) cans buttermilk biscuits (Western Family is the perfect price and size)
1 bag sliced pepperoni
1 egg, beaten
Garlic powder
Italian seasoning
Parmesan cheese (the "powdery" kind)

Cut the block of cheese into 24 to 30 cubes. Flatten each dough biscuit (as you stuff them to avoid drying out) and place a pepperoni or two in the middle. Top it with a cube of cheese and another pepperoni or two. Press the dough around the filling and seal completely. Place on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Brush each "bite" with egg and then sprinkle on the garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and cheese. Bake at 425 degrees F for about 18 to 20 minutes or until nicely browned. Serve with warm marinara sauce on the side for dipping.

TIP: You can fill these little bites up with whatever pizza toppings you like! Also, if you happen to buy the "grand" size biscuits, be sure to cut the dough in half or your "bite" will be HUGE!
