What is it called when you have a phrase like my very educated mother just served us nine pizzas to remember the planets in the solar system?

This is called an acrostic. It is not an anagram, but it is similar. In this case you have an acrostic used as a mnemonic devise to help remember the names of the eight..., er..., nine... planets. Maybe you could turn nine pizzas into: nan, the delicious Indian bread;
napoleons, the really delicious pastry;
nougat, the candy; unless you feel strongly invested in the planethood of Pluto.
