Hi, I’m Catherine.
Mama of three. A Kentucky girl living in California. Here’s what I know: all kids can be great eaters and mealtime must be easy. My passion is creating simple, healthy recipes that can be enjoyed by the whole family.
Pizza Mummies
Costumes, school parties, trick or treating. For parents, Halloween can be exhausting.....but at the same time a lot of fun.
With all the craziness and excitement of the big day, how do we get everything done and feed the kids too? Just make a big batch of these Pizza Mummies in the morning and all you have to do before everyone shows up for the big fashion show is toss them in the oven for a few minutes.
Chances are your kids may be even more amused by your Pizza Mummies than they are about everyone's costumes!
Pizza Mummies (serves 2)
Prep Time: 5 mins Cook Time: 8 mins
egg free
nut free
Ingredients
- 2 english muffins, cut in half
- 8 teaspoons pizza sauce
- 2 mozzarella cheese sticks
- 3 green olives with pimentos
Preparation
1. Preheat oven to 400℉.
2. Place the English muffin halves on a baking sheet and bake for 5 minutes.
3. Remove muffins from oven and spread 2 teaspoons of the pizza sauce onto each English muffin half.
4. Peel the mozzarella sticks into strings and decoratively arrange them on top of each English muffin. Slice the green olives into 1/4 inch thick rings and place them on top of the cheese to create eyes.*
5. Bake mummies for 3 more minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
* If making mummies in the morning to eat later in the day, after this step place muffins on a plate, cover loosely with tin foil and refrigerate. When ready to serve, continue with step 5.

These made me laugh out loud - too cute ! My boy will have a blast making them.
\"put them on top of the trees\" lol! : )
I have tried this two times and my cheese never melts :( It just burns.
Jennifer - do you have full fat or low fat cheese? I've found that low fat cheese doesn't melt so well. That could be it.
Oh no! What type of cheese are you using? Where in the oven are you placing the baking sheet? You may need to place it lower in the oven. Also, I have noticed that lower fat and fat free cheese don't melt quite the same as full fat versions!
so easy & cute..
i have a Halloween birthday party coming up and will be making it for the kids.

I'm definitely doing this, prepping them in the morning and popping them in the oven before trick or treating! Yes!!! Thanks!
