Pizza Twists

Does anyone else have a picky eater in their family? No, just me?

Well, my oldest son, Maksen, has been picky since he turned 2. There are very limited things that he will eat and let me tell ya, it is ANNOYING sometimes.

Y’all, this meal is perfect for kids, unless your kids just plain don’t like pizza, which I’m sorry if that is the case for you. Not only is this meal great for kids, but throw a side salad in the mix, and boom, adult-friendly.

The best part is that this will be on your table in less than 25 minutes!
