Ingredients
  

  • 13.8 ounces refrigerated pizza dough
  • 3 black olives Cut into small pieces for the eyes.
  • 1 piece of a red bell pepper Sliced into forked tongues.
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil For brushing.
  • 2 teaspoons poppy seeds Sprinkled on top.
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds Optional for additional flavor.

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350° F.
  2. Cut the black olives into small pieces for the eyes. Cut the red bell pepper into forked tongues. Set aside.
  3. Unroll the tube refrigerated pizza dough.
  4. Cut the dough into 12 strips on the long side and roll each into 12-inch ropes, tapering one end to create the tail and flattening the other end to create the head.
  5. Wrap each rope in a spiral around a greased 10 ½-inch wooden chopstick or metal straw. Brush the bread with olive oil and sprinkle the body of the snake with poppy seeds or sesame seeds.
  6. Place the black olives on the head of each snake to make the eyes.
  7. Bake on two parchment paper-lined baking sheets at 350° F until golden brown, 11 to 15 mins. Cool 3 minutes before carefully removing chopsticks.
  8. While still warm, use a toothpick or skewer to carefully thread red peppers into the tip of the flat end of each snake to make the tongue.
