Mini bagel pizzas are a really fun way to serve up a meal the family may otherwise be getting tired of. Try this version of pizza in the toaster oven, too, to keep that extra heat to a minimum in the kitchen this summer!

Hello! It’s Kathy from Beyond the Chicken Coop! Lunch at our house always seems to be frenzied. You would think during the summer or on weekends during the school year that lunch time would be relaxing. In reality, we are often rushing to get lunch on the table and get out the door to our next event. These mini bagel pizzas are a go-to favorite for my family.

The thing my kids love best about these pizzas is assembling their own little pizzas. I just pull out whatever I have on hand and they quickly pile on their favorites. We like pepperoni, ham, bell peppers, black olives, pineapple, green onions. The list of possible toppings is endless. Sometimes my kids just pick cheese.

These mini bagel pizzas will make you a lunch time hero!
