Rainbow Vegetable Pizza – This simple, fresh veggie pizza is the perfect healthy way to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day!
Hello! Tiffany from Feel Great in 8 here. I’m excited to be back sharing another simple, healthy recipe I know you will love!
As a mom, I’m always looking for fun ways to add a little healthy food to holidays. I definitely don’t try to keep my kids from eating all junk food, but there is always so much sugar associated with holidays. It’s nice to add a little healthy food in there too. Maybe even a vegetable or two. 😉
This fun rainbow vegetable pizza is the perfect way to get your kids (and you) to enjoy some healthy food this St. Patrick’s Day.
And, since holidays are stressful enough as is, this cold pizza couldn’t be easier!
You can even use a pre-made pizza crust. I used a leftover pre-cooked homemade pizza crust (this is my favorite healthy recipe), but you can also use a store-bought pizza crust.
Then just add a simple cream cheese mix and your favorite colorful veggies. My 4 year old helped me pick out a vegetable in each color and he was so excited to help build and eat the rainbow.
One of the best ways to get kids to eat more vegetables, in my experience, is to have them help pick them out and prepare them. And this pizza is the perfect way to do that.
Plus, eating veggies of every color is the best way to get more of the essential nutrients and vitamins your body needs. What better way to do that than with a vegetable rainbow?!
I hope you give this fun recipe a try and that your family loves it as much as mine did!
