"Since pizza is a big favorite with my teenagers, I like to keep these crispy snacks on hand," says Ruby Williams of Bogalusa, Louisiana. "Loaded with toppings, they go right from the freezer to the oven with little time and effort. And they're always a hit."

These are WONDERFUL! So nice to have in the freezer to grab out for a quick lunch or snack. Everyone loves these and my hubby who thinks he doesn't like mayo, loves these. (I never told him it has mayo on it!) So nice to have homemade ones on hand instead of store-bought.
