So I thought it was worth a try.
Bring on the veggies & the Country Crock.

You’ll find lots of fun recipes made with veggies & Country Crock.
Like bear claws (potatoes), Mt. Veggie Volcanoes (sweet potatoes),
Pasta Full of Posies (bell peppers) & Beautiful Butterflies (baby carrots).
I decided to try out the Pizza Flag. My kiddos LOVE pizza!
For our pizza I used a pizza crust mix, pizza sauce, string cheese sticks,
some grated mozzarella cheese & sliced tomatoes.
For my flag area I cooked some spinach leaves
in Country Crock until the leaves wilted (about 2 minutes),
& then I put them on my pizza in the top corner.
Then for my “stars” I just cut a piece of string cheese into tiny circles.
You can find the whole step by step recipe in the Clare Crespo cookbook.
FYI: The recipe didn’t call for it but I did
add a row of pepperonis underneath the tomatoes.
{Hey…around here you’ve got to have some pepperonis on your pizza! }
We served our yummy pizza with a fresh salad & baby carrots with ranch!
I love serving a healthy & delicious meal to my family.
