How to make English muffins pizza Flowers

1. Split the English muffins in half and arrange them on a baking sheet.
2. Spread tomato sauce on each of the muffin halves, leaving a little bit of space around the edges.
3. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the tomato sauce.
4. Place about 4 pepperonis around each muffin half, leaving a small circular opening in the center. Place the mozzarella ball inside the circle.
5. Air fry for 5-6 minutes at 370 degrees, or until the cheese is melted and the pepperonis are cooked to your liking.
6. Serve with fresh basil leaves, fresh fruit and/or preferred sweet treat, optional for complete lunchbox.

Why prep school lunch boxes?

To make meal planning more consistent and practical in my house, I aim to include four school lunch preps for my two kids in our weekly meal prep rotation. Therefore, we save money and ensure that we are providing a well balanced meal to our children. 

At least two days of the week, the kids are eating a nutritious meal that happens to be fun and festive. Additionally, these meals are simple enough to put together in less than 15 minutes. 

In these lunch preps I try to include a variety of colors as well as a good balance of the essential food groups so that my kids are getting exposure to different foods in a fun and exciting way!

We sure hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we do. It’s definitely one of those recipes worth saving. There’s nothing better than adding a little fun to enjoy a delicious meal.
