Persnickety Parenting: Super Easy Tomato Basil Mini Pizzas

So easy a toddler can do it!
We made this very simple and tasty dish into a learning experience by counting each ingredient and letting Alexa top the pizza's. Obviously she can't use knives or ovens so parental guidance is required. But leave the details to the kids and you'll both enjoy it.

I lightly toasted the bread while we counted out 15 cherry tomatoes, 10 spinach leaves and 1 clove garlic. Alexa put all the ingredients into a small food processor along with a few basil leaves. After everything was blended together, I took out the blade and she piled our custom tomato "sauce" onto the toasted bread.

I sliced up some extra spinach for mine.

Then grated some pecorino romano cheese over everything.

It's probably a good idea to prepare yourself with extra cheese. If your anything like my toddler, half of it will end up in your belly before the pizza even goes in the oven.

We managed to get a good amount onto the pizzas (and the floor). I put the plate right into the 350 degree oven for 15 min. And having dogs made the floor clean up much easier. :)

This is the one loaded with spinach.

I actually made the same thing the night before for dinner but I used english muffins, which are much more enjoyable. I'll give you a quick picture view of that one...
