Itty Bitty will eat better when she actually takes part in the cooking process. We turn our oven on broil and while it warms, she cuts her sandwich/loaf bread into a circle like a pizza. You can do this with a cutter, a can, a glass, scissors, anything really. The key to making it actually seam like real pizza is to lightly toast both sides of the bread . That's the part I get to do....anything involving the oven. After toasing each side, Itty bitty spreads on a canned type pizza sauce, her "pizza mix" cheese and then tops it with honey ham...I know....kinda weird but she loves it. Then she sprinkles with some oregano and a wee bit of salt and pepper. And she likes to top her pizza with shakable parmesan cheese (sprinkles). Stick it back into the oven and broil until the cheese is melted. Let cool a few minutes, cut into miniature pieces of pizza and EAT! She loves it and I know your kids will too. The key is to get them involved and let them dress their own pizza. Go do it!
