I think pizza is the best with kids- even the littlest kid can help put their favorite toppings on. Make sure to add lots of veggies!!


Prep Time:15 min
Start to Finish:45 min
makes:8 servings
Crust
1 1/3cups Gold Medal® all-purpose flour- (I would use whole wheat flour)
1teaspoon baking powder
1/2teaspoon salt
1/2cup fat-free (skim) milk
2tablespoons olive oil
Topping
1 1/2cups shredded reduced-fat mozzarella cheese (6 oz)
1can (14.5 oz) Muir Glen® organic diced tomatoes, drained
1cup fresh baby spinach leaves, coarsely chopped
1cup yellow or green bell pepper strips
1/4teaspoon dried oregano leaves
1/4teaspoon garlic powder
1/8teaspoon pepper
2tablespoons freshly shredded Parmesan cheese
1.Heat oven to 400°F. In medium bowl, mix flour, baking powder and salt. Stir in milk and oil until soft dough forms. (If dough is dry, stir in 1 to 2 tablespoons additional milk.) On lightly floured surface, knead dough 10 times. Shape dough into ball. Cover with bowl; let stand 10 minutes.
2.Place dough on ungreased cookie sheet; flatten slightly. Roll out to 12-inch round. Bake 8 minutes.
3.Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over crust; top with remaining topping ingredients. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until crust is light golden brown and cheese begins to brown. Cut into wedges to serve.
