Cheese Pizza Recipe for Kids

September 7, 2012 Cooking 67 Comments

Cheese Pizza is a coveted food by most kids, whether it’s because of its gooey cheese, or crispy crust, kids are always asking for pizza! And today, would be the day to grant your kid cheese pizza! They can help you create mini Cheese Pizza Faces, using fresh tomato sauce and English muffins take cheese pizza to a whole different level!

For these lovely faces we are going to use English Muffins, but you can do this with any pizza recipe you might have at home as well!

What you need:

  1. English Muffins
  2. Tomato Sauce
  3. Any type of cheese that you and your family enjoy on a pizza
  4. Toppings that will create a face – pepperoni, olives, broccoli, and peppers.

What to do:

  1. Cut the English muffins in half
  2. Put tomato sauce and cheese on top
  3. Apply the face you want
  4. Pop it in the oven
  5. Take out when the cheese looks thoroughly melted
  6. Enjoy!

For the adults, you can try adding basil and using fresh mozzarella for a more sophisticated taste.

    This is such a great idea!!! My son would love to help me make these but he wouldn’t eat them because he’s so picky:(

    My mom used to make these with us when we were little! It’s also a really fun idea for a party because then kids can top theirs however they want and it doesn’t take long to bake.

    yum! we do these every other week. the kids like to make designs with the toppings and usually they come off after cooking because they like plain cheese pizzas! but at least they’re munching on veggies while they decorate their pizzas@

    I think these are really fun snacks. Not just for kids. >.>;; I’d make them just for myself lol

  58. Rebecca Orr on said:

    I love this idea. My son loves pizza, but sometimes a huge slice is a bit much for him. The proportions of theses are much better for a 5 year old!! bekki1820cb at gmail dot com

    They are so cute, and my boys would enjoy making their own individual small pizzas. I have used hamburger buns before, but not English muffins.
