So I know I promised this post yesterday, but well…obviously that didn’t happen. Haha. Yesterday was the start of second semester here at school (and a hectic day) that resulted in me neglecting the blog for the time being. But here it is! Homemade pizza pockets. I made these over break and were pleasantly surprised how well they turned out. The soft homemade dough makes these things hard to stop eating. Three words. Nom, nom, nom.

You can fill these with your favorite pizza toppings! And you can print off these cute little flags for free below!

I simply filled them with tomato sauce & shredded mozzarella cheese (since I have picky brothers who only like cheese pizza…boring!). Once you have the dough made up, these are a breeze to assemble!
