Let’s face it, if they could, most kids would live on pizza. The one thing I love about living in the country is that we can’t get anything delivered to us, which takes away the temptation. Of course it also means we have to come up with other ways to make our favorite “fast” food. Luckily we can often make things a bit healthier by doing this and of course have some fun together. Pizza quesadillas are so easy to make, the kids can really do it themselves with minimal supervision once they are old enough to see the top of the stove.
• 4 whole wheat tortillas
• 1 1/4 cups mozzarella cheese, grated
• 1/2 cup pasta sauce
• 6 slices vegetarian pepperoni, cut into thin strips
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
Spread your tortillas on a flat surface and cover with cheese on half of the tortilla, top with sauce, pepperonis and then more cheese to help the tortilla stayed closed. Fold the tortilla over and place in pan that has olive oil in it, cook over medium heat until they are lightly browned on each side and the cheese is melted. Once cooled, cut into triangles for easy eating and enjoy!
