When a teen bakes – Spaghetti Sauce Buns
son – “Do we have meat? And buns? And cheese?”
me – “Yup!”
son – “I have an idea…”
I love it when my boy is hungry. And this was our dinner tonight.
These what we officially now call Spaghetti Sauce Buns are similar to pizza buns, but with a small tweak of ingredients. Basically put, this is what we had on hand, and they turned out delicious!
And if my teen kiddo can make them on his own, even better! These are super kid-friendly, and so good! But the key is baking them. Don’t forget that part!
Warning: make MORE than you think you’ll want. You’re welcome.

This sounds good! I’ll give this a try – we have a *bunch* of buns in the freezer left over from DS’s graduation party.
