The warm weather, bright sunshine and fresh air of springtime gets us craving light, tasty spring food. It's a good thing that when you have Pizza Kits in the fridge, you have all the ingredients for a delicious spring recipe. If you have an upcoming Little Caesars® Pizza Kit Fundraiser, these recipes are great to share with your sellers. Here are two of our favorite spring recipes to try out with your Pizza Kits.
