Supreme Pizza Muffins
One of my kiddos’ favorite gluten free and dairy free items to pack in their lunches are Pepperoni Pizza Muffins. So easy, so tasty! Of course, there are so many more types of pizza than pepperoni, and we like them all. My big boy wanted a pizza muffin with all kinds of yummy things in it, so the Gluten Free Dairy Free Supreme Pizza Muffin was created. I hope you like it as much as we do!
