Summer Time!

My freezer is almost empty and I am really looking forward to trying some new summer time friendly meals!  I also have some baby friendly meals to share that have been tested on my little guy :)

Easy Yummy Pizza

We enjoy this freezer meal a couple different ways.  We either will have it on premade pizza crust from Costco or we like to have the pizza on pitas.  Both freeze well.

Ingredients

Pizza crust or pita
Your fav pizza sauce
Fav pizza toppings (ham, pepperoni and bacon)
Cheese

Assemble the pizzas how you like them.

Place on a baking sheet and flash freeze.  Once hard, wrap each pizza in parchment paper to stop it from getting freezer burn.  Place all the pizzas in to freezer bag.


Cooking Directions from Freezer

Preheat the oven to 350ºF and place the pizza in the oven and bake about 30 minutes.
