Some great ideas using Lego that I saw on the Internet

Thursday, June 25, 2015

Everyone loves pizza, and everyone loves fries, so it’s only natural that a combination of the two would be so mouthwatering! These pizza fries combine the great taste of your favourite pizza with the easy-to-eat shape of French fries. Start by spreading the bottom of a Pillsbury pie crust with 1/2 cup of Marinara sauce, then top with pepperoni, sausage, veggies, or whatever topping you enjoy. Then, add cheese, and top it with the other pie crust. Brush the top of the pie crust with olive oil and sprinkle on Parmesan and oregano.
Slice the “pie” into strips about 1/2″ wide, and then slice through the diameter of the “pie” perpendicular to the strips. Place the fries on a baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes. Serve warm with some Marinara for dipping, and enjoy!
