Credit: Disney-PixarIt’s been 25 years since the Disney-Pixar team first brought us Toy Story. Over those two-and-a-half-decades, Woody, Buzz, Bo Peep, Hamm, Rex, and the rest of the gang have skyrocketed their way out of Andy’s bedroom and into Disney fans’ hearts.
There’s no better time to celebrate 25-years of Toy Story than National Pizza Day on May 15. Who didn’t wish they could have a birthday party at Pizza Planet growing up?
Here, you’ll find two healthy Toy Story inspired pizza recipes that you and your family can make together. We recommend turning National Pizza Day into a Toy Story movie marathon night at home!
