Because these mummy appetizers are essentially closed, even though you might see some ingredients or sauce showing through their wrappings, you don’t have to worry about the ingredients spilling out and making a mess.

This feature makes them great finger food for your Halloween party. Guests can easily carry these around and munch on them while they mingle and talk. Portable pizza!

Kids will really enjoy these, too. If you enlist them in the recipe preparation, not only will they have fun choosing their own fillings and wrapping their mummies, but they will also take pride in the finished product. They can boast to their friends that they helped make these delicious little morsels of yummy goodness.

 

INGREDIENTS

 

1 Can Pizza Crust

½ cup Marinara Sauce

½ cup Mozzarella Cheese

10 slices Genoa Salami

Sliced olives

1 Tbsp. butter, melted

1 Garlic clove, minced

 

INSTRUCTIONS

 

Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

Take Pizza Crust out of can and roll until it’s about half the thickness it was out of the can. Cut into 3″X5″ rectangles. Cut the one half of the rectangle into thin strips that you will use to “wrap” your mummies.

Place onto a greased cookie sheet, then add sauce, cheese and salami. Wrap the pizza with the cut pieces and tuck them into the side. Overlap some pieces so it looks realistic. Place two sliced olives for the eyes.

Combine butter and garlic clove, then coat each pizza bite mummy with the mixture.

Bake for about 8 minutes, or until dough is lightly browned and serve with marinara sauce for dipping!

Quick Tip:  Get creative with the ingredients you place inside each mummy. For kids, keep these pretty basic, such as plain cheese or pepperoni slices. For adults, you could use sausage, peppers (bell or hot), different cheeses, ham, pineapple – anything you could imagine. You could even make “sweet” mummies and fill them with a mixture of cream cheese, powdered sugar and cinnamon, using chocolate chips for eyes, which you would set in place after you removed them from the oven. Of course, these you would not dip in marinara sauce!
