With March Madness here, I like preparing party snacks and appetizers to enjoy while we watch the games. This year I decided to do a unique twist on basketball and make Pizza Balls which are perfect for a slam dunk in a bowl of warm pizza sauce. This appetizer was incredibly easy to make and it received rave reviews from fans. In fact, Kora asked if she could eat these every day from now on!

These look really good and so easy. I don’t eat meat, but hubby would love them and I could fill mine with my favorite veggies. I’m definitely pinning these for future parties. Thanks!
Yum. Sounds not only good. Sounds easy to make too.
Could brown some Italian sausage with some red, green, and yellow peppers along with some onion that would be good in them too.
What a fun recipe – perfect time to find it, too!
These look awesome! Thanks for sharing!
I might try this for this year’s upcoming March Madness.
OMG these look amazing and are so easy!!! I could easily make them with veggie pepperoni to vegetarianize them too! yummers!
These are a great idea.
These look so good!
My youngest son would love these-he too would probably want to eat them every day lol
