A little help from my friends…

So lately I’ve been asked by a few people to help them with their meal plans and grocery lists. This seems to be really stressful for some personalities and I feel like it’s one of my strong points. I’m not sure why but I LOVE making out my menu and grocery list. So I thought I would try to post (when able to) a few recipes that my family loves. I am always on the look out for new kid-friendly meals so when I find a new one why not share it. I am not a professional chef and I do not make everything from scratch but I try my hardest to make healthy and happy meals for my family. So here’s the first one:
BTW-I use mostly organic ingredients but that’s just my preference.
Homemade Pizza
Whole wheat pizza dough (I get mine at Harry’s but I think I’ve seen them at Target)
Organic pizza sauce
Mozzarella cheese
Applegate Farms sausage and bacon
Zucchini
Bell Pepper
Feta Cheese
It’s pretty much self-explanitory. Brush the dough with olive oil then bake for about 10 minutes. Take out and add sauce and mozzarella cheese. Half of the pizza is mine and Chris’s and half is the kiddos. On the grown-up half I slice zucchini and bell pepper then add crispy bacon and feta cheese…..YUMMM. And the the kiddos’ I usually do just sausage or sometimes pineapple and ham. Then place back in the oven for about 20 minutes and VOILA! It’s dinner. This meal is wonderful for the weekends or nights when I forget to defrost something. The kids love helping roll out the dough and adding all the toppings. So there you have it. It’s nothing complex but it’s a crowd pleaser and it’s a healthy twist on a family fav. ENJOY!!
