Notes
You can use any flavor of mini bagel (or even use regular sized bagels).
I buy a smaller block of mozzarella cheese and dice it into small little cubes like the OG bagel bites. But you can easily use shredded mozzarella.
I used diced pepperoni sticks for my pepperoni (see the photo above). Pepperoni sticks are like a string cheese and found by the pepperoni in the refrigerated section. But you can use regular pepperoni slices or the mini pepperoni slices too.
You can choose whatever toppings you want on yours. Just make sure to chop them all up small so they fit on the mini bagels!
