These pizza poppers I have made for a few different social gatherings. First was for my son and I put the standard toppings in the poppers. Nothing too fancy or too veggie for that matter. I, however, love to eat mushrooms. I like to add onions and peppers too! Definitely ingredients that are more appealing to an older crowd versus pre-teen kids! I love to brush these poppers with parmesan garlic butter. I literally drench these things in this yummy butter and it is so delicious. Once you make these pizza poppers you will definitely want to make them again!
