SPICY PIZZA POPS
These are just little bites of deliciousness! You have the lovely melted mozzarella, pepperoni and jalapeno, but with a quinoa body they’re low in syns. Perfect dipped in my Best Ever Pizza Sauce (click here). They are also very quick and easy to make.
I got the idea from Wonky Wonderful (click here) on Pinterest, but have amended the recipe.
