How to Make Heart-Shaped Pizza Bites:
You can buy store-bought pizza dough or make homemade dough and add your desired toppings.
But I prefer the “cheater method” because it’s SO easy! All you need to do is take a frozen store-bought pizza and use a heart-shaped cookie cutter to create mini pizza bites and bake according to the package instructions,
Perfect if you’re busy or running low on time.
For added decoration cut out a few heart-shaped pepperonis and add them to the unbaked pizza.
I’m a vegetarian so I did heart-shaped yellow bell peppers and added slices of zucchini .
How cute would these be as a Valentine’s Day lunchbox idea or with a side salad for dinner? I say yes to both!
Tips for making Mini Heart-Shaped Pizza bites
- Use store-bought dough or a premade pizza if you’re short on time.
- if you don’t have a smaller heart-shaped cookie cutter, you could use a small pairing knife to create heart-shaped bell peppers or pepperonis. Simply cut out a “v” shape.
- Store in the refrigeratr for up to 3 days, or place in freezer bags and freeze up to 2 months.
