1 cup pizza sauce
2 cups shredded mozzarella
1/2 package of sliced pepperoni

1..PRESS each biscuit into 6 in round
2..TOP each biscuit with sauce,cheese & pepperoni
3..BAKE in preheated 375 oven 10 to 15 minutes or until bottoms are deep golden brown.

I usually use with my kids at home english muffins

My Safe Cutter.....Split the muffins
Cutting Boards.....To put the muffins on while splitting them
?Kitchen Shears?.....To cut up fresh herbs
Simple Additions.....To put out all the different ingredients
Deluxe Cheese Grater.....Obvious to grate cheese
Bamboo Tongs.....To get out toppings
Small bamboo spoons, or Scrapers, or spreaders.....To put on the pizza sauce
Towels.....To clean up the mess
Spoon Rest.....You don't want to leave the spoons in the sauce, lol
Can Opener.....If it's canned pizza sauce, or spaghetti sauce
Italian Seasoning.....If you want to add more to the sauce
I-Slice.....To open the packages
Can Strainer.....If you are using jars of olives or something
Egg Slicer Plus.....To slice olives
Easy Opener and Jar Opener.....To open stuff
Stones.....To bake pizzas
Spatulas.....To take the pizzas off
More SA pieces to present them with their pizzas
Silicone oven Mitt(s).....To take the hot stones out
Cherry & Olive Pitter.....If you are using fresh olives

Ive done kids pizza using English Muffins. They love those. Use the above suggestions for tools and toppings...use the my safe cutter to pry the muffins apart. They can grate fresh parmesan with the cheese grater or the micro-plane.

And this sounds crazy...but my neice and nephew just love to cut out shapes in baloney with the creative cutters. Why not put them on a pizza. Kids would love that!

there is a really cute fruit pizza idea in the "Let's Eat" kids cookbook. If you don't have that I would highly recommend it... I sold quite a few to parents at regular shows just by making the fruit pizza and having the cookbook sitting out.

I just got an email from my director that someone sent her(Laura Wells is her name-must give credit where credit is due!) .
Her idea was to use the BBQ basting bottle for the pizza sauce and the kids will have an easier time "painting" the sauce on. She said she did it at a kids show, and the kids 3 yrs old... had an easy time with it. And the mothers liked the versatility of it...more than just bbq sauce.

kids pizza themeJust had a daytime kids pizza show last month with all the kids being younger than kindergarten! I was really nervous about this, but all the moms helped and were great. We did the bagel caterpiller pizzas from the kids cookbook, but used pepperoni rather than the hot dogs because of the choking hazard for pre-schoolers. Each child & mom had their name on a square of parchment and then placed the pizza on the stones to cook. While they were in the oven, we did fruit pizza on sugar cookies, spread with strawberry cream cheese, sliced strawberries and bananas with the egg slicer. Was able to use several products and lots of the moms were surprised that their kids were so excited about making their own food! The kids loved using the egg slicer, the kids safety knife, the pizza cutter (with supervision!) The hostess had also mixed up pudding and cool whip and frozen it in those minature ice cream cones. The kids then got to use the easy accent decorator to top with cool whip and added sprinkles. The first time one of the kids added the cool whip, everybody went, "Wow!!" Sold three EAD's and lots of the safety knives!!
