Lunch anyone? Pizza maybe?

Pizza.  One of the meals that kids love... and adults too.  The thing that I worried about when starting to change our eating was the things my kids would miss.  I didn't want them to feel like they were "going without" per say.  It was not that bad with Tate because for him, anything is better, then the baby formula that he has been on, but Ava, well little noodle is different.  She loves food.  I wanted her to still have those memories of eating dinners, that she liked, having treats on movie nights and helping me make dinners.  We made these little pizzas the other day for lunch and they were splendid, very colorful too.
Here's the Recipe
Ezekials Pita Pocket Bread
Amy's Pasta Sauce
1 Zucchini
Canned Black Olives
1 Red pepper
1/2 onion
Almond Cheese Mozerella style
Some red pepper flakes (for a little kick)
A little garlic salt
A pinch of basil or fresh basil leaves
(any other veggies you think should go on a pizza)
Assemble pizza to your liking, and bake at 375 for about 10 minutes. 

The kids loved em' and had fun picking out what they wanted on it.  Ava even helped me cut the veggies on her little cutting board.  She did a great job and would even munch as she cut.  Healthy Lunch, Happy memories.
Dobru Chut!

PS- Something I learned while checking on the pizzas- almond cheese does not melt, so do not let that be a deciding factor as to when the pizza is done.  Gees who would of guessed?
