How To Make easy football pizza

    Spread pizza sauce evenly over crust, with mozzarella cheese and parsley. Arrange pepperoni in a football shape in center of pizza. Cut string cheese lengthwise into 4 strips. To make football laces, place one strip horizontally on center of football. Cut remaining strip into 5 pieces; arrange vertically across horizontal strip. (You can eat the other 2 strips of string cheese.) lol

    Bake 10 to 13 minutes longer, or until crust is deep golden brown and cheese is melted. To serve, cut into 4 rows by 4 rows, making 16 pieces. *Feel free to add additional seasonings of your choice to sauce and cheese. Make it "your own". :)
