Pizza & Bread

Three ingredients, 5 minutes, every kid builds their own. Set up a topping bar. Even the 2-year-old can sprinkle cheese.

From store-bought dough. Pre-bake the crust 3 min, add toppings, cook 5-7 more. Older kids manage the whole process.

Crescent dough filled with sauce, cheese, and pepperoni, rolled into pockets. Toddler-perfect size.

Sliced bread, sauce, cheese, toppings. The simplest possible pizza using pantry staples. Sneak puréed veggies into the sauce.

French bread with garlic-butter-Parmesan. Ready in 5 minutes as a side for any pasta night.

Refrigerated biscuit dough rolled into sticks. Kids love the rolling step. Serve with marinara.

A staple. Let cool before serving — the filling gets volcanic.

Cheese or meat ravioli coated in Italian breadcrumbs and air fried. Bite-sized pasta pockets with marinara for dipping.
