Mummy Face Pizza's

So for Halloween (or maybe it was the Friday night before hand) I made these fun pizza's. Perfect for the occation.

Mummy Face Pizza's from KraftFoods.com

This recipe is for 2 little kids or 1 big kid :) So, you know I really had to make A LOT!!! It was fun.

1 plain bagel (3-1/2 inch), cut horizontally in half
2 Tbsp.  pizza sauce
2 sticks KRAFT STRING-UMS String Cheese
4 slices  black olives
HEAT oven to 400ºF.
SPREAD bagel halves with sauce. Pull cheese into thin strips; place in random criss-cross fashion on tops of bagels to resemble mummy bandages. Trim ends with kitchen shears. Add olives for the eyes.
PLACE on baking sheet.
BAKE 10 min. or until bagels are crisp and cheese is melted.

**I bought the bagel thins (I think they are called) from Costco, and the Pepperoni, and string cheese. The string cheese could easily be substituted with shredded mozzerela cheese. Which means, since I bought in bulk I have been making these for easy lunches :) The kids don't mind.
