Do your chores and make a bagel pizza!

Do you like to do chores? A chore is work you do around the house. Some chores are: cleaning your bedroom, vacuuming the floor and washing the dishes. My guess is that chores are not your favorite.

Making your snack is also a chore, and today you will learn how to make pizza. It is a perfect snack after school.

Do you like pizza? Everybody likes pizza – well, almost everybody. Every year, people around the world eat around 5 billion pizzas! That is a lot of pizza.

There are many kinds of pizza. Some very popular pizza are pepperoni, cheese, Margherita and even Hawaiian pizza with pineapple!

You can make pizza snack from bagels! Let’s begin!

What you need:
1 knife – have mom or dad help you. It is sharp.
1 bagel – you can use a bun, too
A little marinara sauce – that’s pizza sauce – you know, special tomato sauce
some mozzarella cheese
the toppings that you like - You can use pepperoni, ham, mushrooms, peppers and pineapple – What do you like! I like pepperoni and cheese.

Turn on the oven to 425 degrees F or 220 degrees C.
Use the knife and cut your bagel in half.
Put a little marinara sauce on each half of the bagel.
Add the toppings you like. I like a lot of toppings!
Add the cheese on top.
Put your bagels on a baking sheet and cook for 5 to 10 minutes – until the cheese it hot and melted
Eat and enjoy!
