DIY Pitta Bread Pizza for Kids

Get the kids involved in making their own meals with these super easy DIY Pitta or Naan Bread Veggie Pizzas!

Whilst we all know that getting kids involved in the kitchen is a great way to develop skills and help them to become more interested in the food they eat.

But the reality of letting them loose with the oven, stove, knives, etc can be pretty daunting! 

Lately my daughter has become a lot more interested in helping me out in the kitchen.

So I have been trying to come up with child-friendly recipes that are quick and easy to make but also safe enough to let her get on with it herself.

These pizzas are a brilliant way to encourage a child’s interest in cooking in a really safe way.

All you need are some mini pitta or naan breads, a sauce of some kind (I use pesto and tomato puree) and then lots of toppings.

To make this even more fun and safe for the kids, I pre-chop all the veggies and put them into silicone muffin cases and let the kids loose on making up their own pizza creations.

    I am so glad I found your website. I always run out of ideas for what to give my two toddlers for a healthy (and very quick) meal, plus I am not the best cook in the world. The DIY pizzas look delicious – can’t wait to try them out.

      I’ll be completely honest with Stacey… I’m not the best cook either! That’s why I LOVE anything that’s quick, easy and healthy! These pizzas are great and the kids will have a ball making them. Enjoy!
