Make These Pizza Twists Today… Your Kids Will Thank You For It

These make the ultimate after school snack. When I know that the kids had exams or lots of difficult testing one day, I always make them these for a special treat. They have a huge look of relief when they walk through the door and they know that they are going to get a nice snack for a change. It’s a lot better than having them run to the cupboards for cookies, chips. or other unhealthy snacks too. Check out what they are saying about this recipe over at Spend With Pennies:
