Great Kid Friendly Recipes and Ideas for Fussy Eaters

Pizza is the favorite kid food of all time. Even the fussiest of all eaters cannot resist pizza. I have known the fussiest of kids when it comes to food but they all seem to enjoy some part of pizza. I knew this little girl who wouldn't eat the crust and ate only the top of the pizza; others prefer the crust. But whatever your preference pizza always satisfies and his a healthy meal of choice.

Pizza is the perfect solution when feeding a pack of picky eaters? To make pizza even more consumer friendly give them exactly what they want with do-it-yourself pizzas.

Just give them pizza dough and all kinds of toppings, and let them come up with their own creative self-serve masterpieces.

What You'll Need:

• Pizza crust
• Pizza sauce
• Bite-size and shredded toppings
• Round or rectangular pans (optional)

One For All

• Divide pizza dough into single-size portions or take a whole pizza crust and designate a section for each kid.
• An efficient way to make a lot of individual pizzas: pat most of the dough into a large rectangle and make a grid pattern with strips of remaining dough. Let kids fill the grids with the toppings of their choice. When the pizza is baked, use a pizza wheel or large knife to cut along the grid lines.
• Explore other pizza shapes. How about hearts, flowers, bears, fish or even kid-shaped pizzas?
• Make individual pizza pockets--or calzones--by spreading half a round of raw pizza dough with sauce and toppings, leaving a 1-inch border. Fold the other half over and seal the edges by pressing the dough together with a fork. Brush with olive oil and bake.
• For a quick and easy pizza night, start with pre-baked pizza crust or make your pizza dough ahead of time.

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast

A Sukkot Story More Sukkot Stories A Sixth Dimension As told to Nechama Dina Hecht

I was at the corner of Grove and Baldwyn, just minutes away from my mid-afternoon coffee, when they stopped me. Two boys, in conservative but rumpled suits, big black hats shielding their faces from the sun. They wanted me to light a candle. But not just any candle, they wanted me to light a candle for G-d. To change the world. To bring perfection. I wondered if soon they'd tell me it was the key to wealth. I said no. I was searching for meaning all my life. I knew money was not the key. Even the citi ads agreed. I needed more. Fulfillment. Career. A sense of self worth. A group of friends. A part in changing someone's life. And I got it all, but it wasn't enough. On that day, I knew I needed more. But I was prepared to give more community service, a more challenging job. Not G-d. I don't need G-d in my life. I live in this world, not in nirvana. I don't need ritual, repetitive cultish behavior to give color to my world. I certainly didn't need a plain white tealight to replace my lavender scented pillar. I needed meaning. So I said no. Weeks later, they stopped me again. This time, they were carrying branches and fruit. They wanted me to wave them in the air, to shake them in all directions. For G-d. For world peace. For unity. What a ridiculous way of avoiding reality. I said no. But the next day, I said yes. I figured, what harm can come from a little foreign culture? So I shook the fruit. And there were no fireworks, no visions of G-d, no glow of accomplishment. Just like I expected. But later that night, there was something different. Nothing big, nothing I could quite put my finger on. Just a very slight feeling of good. So the next day, I waved the branch again. I repeated the strange syllables, and waved the fruit around. But not for world peace. Just to catch that elusive feeling. Now, I light candles every Friday night. I stopped putting milk in my chicken a la King. I read words of praise daily from a little book. To G-d. What changed? Oddly enough, it hasn't changed the things I do. I still have my career. I still have my friends. I still volunteer at the women's shelter. But it's more. Nothing has changed. Nothing has changed in my 5-dimensional world. But I've discovered a sixth dimension I never knew existed. I would never have believed it if I heard it. Reading about it would make no difference. Sound can only be understood in the context of other sounds. Not until I shook a branch could I have reference for that dimension. And not until I began doing more could I really feel its presence. Those boys could have talked me blue in the face, but it would be meaningless on its own. I had to actually do it myself. And now, I know why they stopped me.
