Veggie Pizza
Whole-wheat pitas are the perfect base for healthy individual pizzas. Ours are topped with four different kinds of veggies and provolone cheese.
White Chicken Chili
A wholesome, lighter chili that's still hearty can be made by replacing beef with chicken and adding nutrient-packed cannellini beans and fresh veggies. Adjust the heat by leaving out the jalape?o if you or your kids don't like too much spice. The lime juice gives it a delicious zest and depth of flavor.
