    Watermelon “Pizza”

    Published: Mar 17, 2016 · Updated: Aug 18, 2021 · This post may contain affiliate links.

    This is the best (and healthiest) “pizza” ever! Kids love making this fun recipe, and you may just find that you do too. Although the recipe calls for specific amounts and ingredients that go nicely together, the truth is it’s highly flexible, and you can easily omit, swap, or add your kids’ favorite fruits and ingredients. Or just put all the ingredients on the table to create a “pizza factory,” and let the kids assemble their own pizza—a wonderful way to get children excited about vibrantly healthy food. Reprinted with permission from Superfood Snacks © 2015 by Julie Morris, Sterling Publishing Co., Inc.

    Variation: Although this is delicious and fun for adults as well as kids, you might want to try a few of the following ingredients, which are more grown-up-friendly, and make a great party snack: shaved fennel, minced parsley, black pepper, sea salt, and a drizzle of olive oil.
