Healthy snacks for kids - Make your own pizza

healthy snacks for kids would like to show you another post on what we had for dinner. Its not a healthy snacks for kids idea more of a healthy dinner idea for kids and adults :).

For the base of the pizza we used pitta bread, but you can use whatever base you want really.

Ontop of the base we put a layer of tomota paste. Then we spread some shredded ham ontop you can put chicken, salami or anything that takes your fancy really. We then put some sliced mushrooms and then luke helped to put some pineapple which was surprising due to him trying to eat them all :)

He was really interested in helping and thought it was lots of fun.

After cooking my pizza on my special pizza stone which was pre heated in the oven for 20mins, it was time to put it to the big test. Luke manged to get it on his fork ok which is a good start.


This piece is quite big i wonder if it will fit in my mouth....



Yeah this tasts good. Mission accomplished, luke is eating some healthy food. i would say this is a healthy snacks for kids success :)



So this pizza of course could be complelty a veggie pizza which would make it much more healthy but at least its a start and he ate it all up. By making your own food at least you know what is going into it and can make it as healthy as possible.

The big thing we have been finding lately is getting luke involved in preparing meals. The more he is involved the more he wants to eat it and the more interested he is in eating healthy snacks.

i've actually come across an excellant website that has tons of menu idea's i highly recomend checking it out. It has really helped me a lot in planing my meals. Great if your after healthy snacks for kids ideas Click here to find out more info
