This kid-friendly meal can satisfy even the choosiest of eaters, and you’ll be satisfied knowing they’re getting the fiber they need. Getting the kids involved in picking their own toppings (limited only by their imaginations), and encouraging them to try new foods can help turn this pizza night into an opportunity for your child to discover (and like) a new food!
Make sure all helpers wash their hands before helping in the kitchen.
Have leftover veggies? Dip them in Roasted Garlic Hummus for a healthy snack.

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 F. While the oven heats up, spread 4 tortillas onto a cookie sheet.
- Using a spoon, divide the sauce onto the 4 tortillas, and spread it around, leaving about ¼ of an inch around the edges of the tortilla.
- Place your vegetable toppings onto each pizza. Letting kids decide on their own toppings can be a fun family dinner idea! Place the cheese on top of the veggie toppings.
- Sprinkle the seasonings over each pizza. Place in the oven for about 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown. Enjoy!
Notes
You can try different toppings, like pineapple, spinach, zucchini, or onions. For veggies that your child doesn’t like the texture, try chopping them up. You’re only limited by your imagination!
