How do you make pizza lunchables?

DIY Pizza lunchables are so easy and require just a few small tweaks to the homemade lunchables I referenced above. 

Here’s what you need:

  • Uncured pepperoni: I like the freshly sliced kind in the Sprouts deli
  • Sprouts brand tomato sauce: it has less sugar than other options
  • Shredded mozarella cheese
  • Simple Mills almond flour crackers: These go on sale quite often at Sprouts!
  • Fruits and/or veggies to serve on the side or to dip in the extra tomato sauce
