Easy Cheesy Homemade Pizza Pockets
I love these homemade pizza pockets because you can pretty much put whatever you want inside of them. You can load them with veggies. Or load them with cheese. You can add all your favourite pizza toppings!
When I was a teenager I used to eat pizza pockets like crazy. Or were they called pizza pops? It’s been so long, that I don’t even remember?? I’d throw two of them into the microwave (isn’t that how all teenager food is cooked?) and that would be my lunch.
Oh, the days when we could eat whatever we wanted and not worry about calories… or apparently nutrition. I feel like we ate a lot more processed food back then? I mean, I guess technically these are still a little processed since I used refrigerated pizza crust. But at least you have the option of making your own crust with this recipe. And you can actually load them full of healthy things if you wanted to!
We’re pretty much a pepperoni pizza family at the moment. Actually, that’s not even true. Two out of three of my kids will only eat cheese pizza. But I’m not sure if I can count these as pizza pockets if I only add cheese to them? I sneaked a little bit of pepperoni inside. And right away my 6 year old pulled the pepperoni out of hers. Oh these kids!
My oldest daughter (the one who will actually eat pepperoni) gave these a thumbs up and a smile. She was busy watching TV, so I was impressed I got any reaction at all. Do your kids turn into zombies in front of the TV? Or is that just mine?
