How to get kids to eat veggies the FUN way! Mini PIzza’s


We had a blast the other night with our grandkids making mini pizza’s! 
They really got into the process of creating their masterpieces!
We started with Rhodes roll dough and let them thaw until the rolls were soft and ready to be formed. A jar of yummy spaghetti sauce and lots of veggies for the kids to use to create faces on their pizzas. We used peppers, olives, grape tomatoes, thinly sliced red onion, pepperoni and ham slices and of course shredded cheese!
 Even Lou the 2 1/2 yr old got in on the process!! 

I loved how they used their imagination to create these cute faces!
I encouraged them to use small pieces of vegetables to make hair or eyebrows and thin slices of onion for mouths or “wrinkles”

 Even Papa got in on the process! 

They wanted to make lots of pizza’s!

Here are a few of their “masterpieces”

Proof is in the “pizza” they loved them and gobbled them up as fast as I could get them out of the oven!

Watch our live action video of the mini pizza making process! LOL 

This is a tradition in our family and I have done this with my kids, nieces and nephews and neighbors and all the kids love it! In fact some of my nieces and nephews now in their 20’s say that it is one of their favorite memories…coming over to Aunt Ree Ree’s (my nickname) and making little pizzas’s. 
Karins Kottage

Welcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with! You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too! I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!
