Chicken Kabobs with Peanut Sauce
Chicken kabobs make for an easy, healthy snack or meal, and food on skewers is fun! Kids will love the yummy peanut sauce.


Tortilla Pizzas
When I asked a friend with two young daughters what they like to eat she answered in just one word: "Cheese!"
"Not peanut butter and jelly?"
"Just cheese!"
"Apples and oranges?"
"Only cheese. Sometimes tacos."
Ladies, this one is for you.
What you need:

• Small corn tortillas
• Salsa
• Shredded cheddar cheese

Mound a little salsa and cheese on each tortilla. Cook on foil-lined tray in toaster oven until cheese has melted and is brown at the edges.
Kids can help: Assemble the "pizzas," cover the tray with foil
Extras: A layer of refried beans under the salsa, cilantro for garnish, a dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of finely chopped green pepper
