As I’m sure everyone knows, this past Sunday, March 14th, was Pi Day. Being a proper mathematical household (and that Dayna was gone for the day) the girls and I celebrated with pi’s of various sorts. First up were Pizza Pi’s.
Notice an abundance of round toppings, approximately Pi number of toppings to boot (I’m not counting cheese or sauce as toppings). These guys were actually really easy to make, and both kids always love to put toppings on pizzas of any size, regardless of whether or not they like the ingredient. In fact, the less they like the ingredient, the more likely it is to end up on the pizza. For the curious, here are the steps to make amazing Pi Pizza:
- Split English muffins in half and lay them out on a pan that can go in the oven.
- Put on some pasta sauce.
- Add some mozzarella cheese to taste.
- Top pizza’s with ingredients of your choosing
- Turn the oven on broil and stick these guys in for a while (5 minutes seems about right).
- Take them out before smoke or flames dominate the kitchen
- Let them cool a few minutes
- Enjoy!
After pizza for lunch, we then got serious and made an Oreo Cream Pi for dessert later that night after Mommy got home. It was also pretty tasty if I do say so myself, even if the crust sort of stuck to the pan.
