Serve these snacks warm with extra pizza sauce or ranch dressing for dipping. For parties, cut them into bite-sized pieces to make sharing easier. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a toaster oven or regular oven to keep them crispy—avoid microwaving to prevent sogginess.
