Dragon Pizza

Our friends son loves dragons. I often think about him when I see dragon-y things. One funny story is that he was given the opportunity, by his parents, to select a middle name for his younger brother and chose "dragon" for the name.

Recently this little boy (8 years old) had to have surgery, so we brought his family dinner. We thought pizza would go over well with the kids and I thought it would be fun to cut a dragon shape out of one of the pizzas for him. When asked what part of the dragon he wanted to eat first, he responded with "the tail." Haha! We brought over some "dragon wings" (BBQ chicken wings) too.

Dragon Pizza:

I used a dragon image that I found online as a guide when creating this pizza. I had to simplify the image so that it would be easier to cut out.

Step #1 - Trace / Cut Out Image

 Step #2 - Bake Pizza / Cut Around Image

Step # 3 - Finishing Details

I didn't like the way the head turned out so I simplified it. I added some detail on the wings too with pepperoni slices.

Dragon Wings

These chicken wings are selling at 711. I thought it was so funny that they were labeled "Dragon Wings" at the store. I guess they are really spicy.

Licorice Bears

My husband would love these and I think they would be fun for kids too since they are bear shaped. They're selling at the World Market.

Monopoly Gummies

I have actually tried these. The box doesn't come with a game board or anything, just 4 types of gummies. The gummies are fairly large and are not soft and chewy. I think these gummies would make a good gift for a hard core Monopoly fan.

Spiderman Ice Cream

I went to Baskin-Robbins recently and noticed there Spiderman ice cream while I was there. The lady working behind the counter told me that it is the kids favorite and turns their mouths either blue or purple, I can't remember. Anyway, it reminds me of the bubblegum and cotton candy ice creams I liked as a kid...minus the super hero.

Goldfish Flavors

I can't believe all of the new and unique gold fish flavors that have come out lately. I think these crackers would make great "once-a-year" or "rare occasion" gifts for kids. I can see them working well in trail mix too.

Dessert Nachos

I thought of making dessert nachos when I saw the new "sweet" chip line selling in stores. Cinco De Mayo was around the corner so I used the cinnamon sugar pita chips and made some. They were good. I used chopped fruit for the "salsa" and whip cream /chocolate for the center. Next time, I'll stry the chocolate chips and add ice cream /frozen yogurt.

Taco Bell sells a dessert nacho kit, I found them at the grocery outlet. But there are other companies selling cinnamon and chocolate chips, so you could put together your own.

Pepperoni Pizza Pretzel

I saw this pepperoni pizza pretzel selling at Auntie Anne's a few months ago. So creative. I want to make them at home. I'm sure they'd be a big hit with kids. They cost almost $4 in the mall.

Marshmallow Dipped Cones

They sell these mini marshmallow dipped cones at the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory. I think it's a pretty unique idea. They'd probably be fun for kids.

I saw these candy bar labels at the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory. They're so cute!
