Pizza Cup Recipe | After School Snack recipes

Ok. So, this sunday, i was in a terrible terrible mood. You know one of those days, when you want to bite off every single person s head. One of those days when you aimlessly rumage about in the fridge and you find nothing worthwhile and hence you become mad. I hope i ve driven home my point.
Towards the evening, this sulky phase of mine reached its saturation. And i knew. I just knew i had to turn my oven on or i would scream like an opera singer and possibly break age old glass panes that abound the township. When you face that kind of a risk, you would obviously turn the oven on, right? Right.

But wait. The worst is yet to come. I went about to forage for some butter in the fridge, which i dint have. Enough for some coconut bread that is. And then i looked about for some milk, which was only a few dregs in the bottom. That drove me up the wall even more. And then i made my peace when i saw my loaf of bread. And that instant, i knew, i had to make something with that loaf. Some more foraging in the vegetable drawer produced some bell peppers. And there, i had it. I made these pizza cups then. They were really delish and sorta cute. You can make them as appetisers for a party too. For a kids party, works swell.
