Easy Dinner Idea: 10 Minute Mac and Cheese Pizza

When it comes to eating out, my kids favorite pizza is the Mac and Cheese pizza from Cici’s.  I believe I’ve mentioned Hubby and I are working on improving our eating habits.  We’ve been limiting our bread and sugar intake and adding more veggies to our diet. (We’ve been pretty strict, but I hope to loosen up a bit and incorporate all foods once again once we reach our goals.)

What this means for the kids is that they’ve not had a trip to their favorite Pizza place in about 6 months! (Poor little guys… Pizza is both of our downfalls, so no more buffets.) The only pizza we’ve been getting is the DIY kind.

Most nights everyone eats the same things, but while the hubby and are are mostly just eating protein and a veggie or two, I still usually prepare a separate side dish for the kids. (Pasta, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, tortillas, fruit etc… you get the picture.)  Some nights though, I do make them a separate special meal.

On a recent trip to the grocery store, I found these new microwavable Macaroni and Mild Cheddar Cheese cups from Horizon. They are exactly what I look for when shopping for quick and easy snacks or individual servings of my kids favorite foods. Plus it makes me happy that Horizon uses simple, recognizable ingredients, like real organic cheese and pasta in their macaroni and cheese.  It’s a choice I can feel good about–and a whole lot of yummy goodness for the kids.
