Dressing Up Pizza

One of our staple dinners for Friday night is PIZZA!  We save money buying frozen pizzas and making them ourselves.  For less than the price of one take-out pizza (about $10), we get four frozen cheese pizzas from Costco.

The pizza alone is really good, especially for the price.  But I'm always looking to add fresh produce to our meals for a few reasons:

• They're healthy for us.  
• I want the boys to be exposed to new foods.  
• It makes the pizza a little more filling with extra toppings.

The most common topping we do in our house is tomato slices, fresh basil, and extra mozzarella cheese (I love cheese!).  I chop up the basil, because the boys are less likely to eat it as whole leaves.

Yum!  Some other variations we do include adding fresh oregano, chopped and sprinkled across the top.  My husband also likes adding bell peppers with the tomatoes and basil.  

The best thing about these toppings is that they all come from our {vegetable} and {herb} gardens!
