I loved making simple little bites like these pizza pretzel nuggets. They took no time, little ingredients, and came out great. This recipe makes a decent-sized batch of snacks. Definitely enough for my wife to take to work and share with her co-workers. Every bite has a wonderful, light pizza flavor. You’ll think you’re biting into your favorite deep-dish pie. Just the right combination of pizza sauce, cheese, and yes, salty crunchiness.
Spice It Up. Or Not.
I left the red pepper flake out when I made these pizza pretzel nuggets since I didn’t know how that’d go over at my wife’s office. For me, this dish could use a bit of spiciness. It’s great on it’s own, don’t get me wrong. But I’m always of the opinion that spicy is better.
Also check out my balsamic, cheddar, and spicy garlic ranch pretzel bites! They are all out-of-this-world good too! And my homemade pizza rolls are well worth the time they take to make.
