Mummy Pizza
Description
The Mummy Pizza starts with slicing ciabatta rolls lengthwise to form mini pizza bases. Thin ribbons of zucchini, created with a vegetable peeler, are layered randomly over a spread of pizza sauce to resemble mummy wrapping. Strips of string cheese are laid across the zucchini, and pairs of black olive slices placed as eyes complete the look. Baking at 400°F melts the cheese and crisps the bread edges, unifying the flavors.
The dish delivers a mix of textures—from the chewy bread and melted cheese to the fresh zucchini ribbons adding contrast. The pizza sauce complements the mozzarella for a classic flavor balance with a visual twist. It’s suitable as a fun snack, appetizer, or a thematic light meal, especially around Halloween or for children.
Leftovers keep well refrigerated for up to three days but tastes best freshly baked.
Ingredients
- 2 ciabatta rolls
- 1 cup pizza sauce
- 1 zucchini
- 4 mozzarella cheese string
- 8 black olives slices
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- Cut the ciabatta bread in half lengthwise. Use a vegetable peeler to peel the zucchini into thin ribbon slices. Pull cheese into thin strips.
- Place the bread on a baking sheet. Spread the pizza sauce on top of the bread. Lay zucchini ribbons across the bread at random criss-cross patterns to mimic mummy bandages. Lay the cheese across the zucchini at different angles. Place two slices of olives on each slice of bread to make the eyes.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted and the bread is toasted, 8-10 minutes. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Best eaten immediately after baking to enjoy melted cheese and crispy bread.
- Store leftovers airtight in the refrigerator for up to three days.
