Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Cut pizza dough into thin strips, approx. ¼" wide.
Thread 3 meatballs onto a strand of spaghetti (this just holds them in place). Begin wrapping dough around the meatballs stretching and criss-crossing until the meatballs are completely covered. Be sure to leave a little space open for the eyes.
Gently remove the spaghetti strand and place the meatball mummy on a parchment lined pan.
Bake 19-23 minutes or until browned. Remove from oven, brush with melted butter and add in edible eyeballs.
Serve with warm pasta sauce.
