PIZZA PINWHEELS

Pizza is a common favorite among kids…who’re we kidding? Pizza is a common favorite among everyone. It’s easy to eat, easy to make—and it tastes good! The reason we all love pizza so much is because pizza is typically high in glutamate, which stimulates our umami taste perception, enhances flavor, and makes us crave it more. However, pizza is also high in sodium and saturated fat, so it’s not generally a go-to after school snack. But don’t worry, we have a solution for all your pizza-loving kiddos.

With a little prep, these Pizza Pinwheelswill have your kids asking for pizza every day, and you’re going to be okay with it. Loaded with 100% whole grains from our Kodiak Cakes Whole Wheat Oat & Honey Mix, these little pizzas have 9.5 grams of protein and only 160 calories. Rest assured, we’re not ruining your dinner plans. Getting creative with your toppings can also add an extra spike of nutrition! Some of our favorites include fresh veggies and pineapple. We also love chopped herbs like sage and basil, which are proven to improve brain function and fight off infection, both of which will help keep your kids in school. Just freeze the leftovers and warm them in the oven for a snack all week!
