Cracker Pizza Bites - Quick and Easy - Great Snack for Kids

Cracker Pizza Bites

We have had a couple of days of sub-zero temperatures. Consequently, my kids are home and driving Dad crazy with a severe case of cabin fever. This afternoon I decided to make them a quick, essy snack that they could help me make - fun for all involved and tasty stuff to boot.

I made these in the microwave, and the video I am including on this site is based on that. You can use a conventional oven at 350° to do the same if you want Pizza Bites that are crisper.

Ingredients:
  • Crackers
  • Sliced Cheese
  • Spaghetti or Pizza Sauce

Method:
  1. Place 4 crackers on a plate
  2. Peel sliced cheese
  3. Fold sliced cheese in half
  4. Fold sliced cheese in half to make 4 squares of cheese
  5. Place cheese on crackers
  6. Place sauce on top of cheese
  7. Add sausage, pepperoni, or whatever you want to the sauce
  8. Microwave on high for 30 seconds or until cheese melts
  9. Remove from oven and serve

Below you will find a video of this recipe. I hope you enjoy and May God Bless!

Quick And Easy Green Chili Soup

Quick And Easy Green Chili Soup - So Easy A Kid Can Make It


This is a simple, spicy soup that I came up with that uses canned items for most of the ingredients. This makes it simple enough for a kid to prepare. For safety reasons, there should be adult supervision when items are being cut. You can vary the heat by deveining the jalapeño, or by adding another jalapeño to spice it up more. With one jalapeño, it is not too hot for my ten year old, so you might want to use this as a guide. If you do get it too hot, add some more American or Velveeta to cool it down a bit. The cooking times are for a 800 watt microwave oven. You can make this on the stove top, but you have to be very careful not to burn the cheeses. For thicker soup, cut the milk in half.

Ingredients:
1 family size can cream of mushroom
1 can roasted and chopped green chili
1 can whole kernel corn
1 diced jalapeño
1/2 onion diced
2 tablespoons cream (optional)
1/2 cup milk
pepper to taste
4 slices American cheese
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
1 inch slice of Velveeta or other processed cheese

Utensils:
1 large microwave safe bowl
1 large spoon
1 knife

Directions:
  1. In a large bowl,mix together all ingredients except cheeses.
  2. Heat in microwave for 6 minutes, stirring every one and one-half minutes.
  3. After 4 minutes, add sliced cheese and Velveeta.
  4. After 6 minutes, stir in cheddar.
  5. Heat 2 minutes or more if needed, stir mixture until cheeses are melted in.
  6. Serve with tortilla chips.
  7. Enjoy!

  1. Turn your stove on medium heat

  2. Place the pan on the burner

  3. Place a pat of butter, margarine or some oil in the pan

  4. Once oil is hot, place a flour tortilla in the pan

  5. Cover tortilla with onions, cheese and chilis

  6. Place a tortilla on top of the filling

  7. Cook until the cheese melts, then flip the quesadilla over

  8. Brown on second side to desired crispness

  9. Flip quesadilla over again if you want the first side more crisp

  10. Plate the quesadilla, then slice into quarters or eighths

  11. Serve with salsa, sour cream or guacamole
