My Daughter Made Dinner And It Was Made Of Win.

This is a sponsored review by BlogHer and Newman's Own.




With two children, a job, and a house to keep clean, I am always on the lookout for meal options that are not only quick, but also good for us. My children are not picky eaters, but sometimes getting them to agree on dinner is a challenge.

My children always agree on pizza.

They were very excited when I told them we were having pizza for dinner, so excited that my daughter decided she would make it.

Newman's Own Thin & Cripy Pizza is all natural and contains no artificial ingredients and zero grams of transfat so I can feel good about the children eating it. My daughter decided to pair ours with fresh fruit and a salad. With 25% less carbs per serving than regular rising crust pizza, I, along with my waist, can feel good about eating it.

After the chef in charge of dinner set the table, she decided to play video games and I'm going to be straight, we almost burned the pizza. The box states 10-12 minutes in a 425 degree oven, but our pizza was done after about seven minutes. It could be my oven, so perhaps next time I would turn down the heat a bit, but other than that, it was so easy a nine year old could do it. And did.

I don't think I have ever had dinner on the table so fast. Come to think of it, my daughter is the one that had dinner on the table so fast. Newman's Own apparently is not good for my self-esteem, but since Newman’s Own Foundation continues Paul Newman’s commitment to donate all profits to charity and over $300 million has been given to thousands of charities since 1982, it is tasty and my children cleaned their plates, I will probably let it slide.

Now if I could just get my daughter to do the dishes.

Chicken, bacon, jalepeno and green olive. Yes, all on the same pizza! It was a staple for me and my hubs when we were starving college students :)

i like extra cheese, hamburger & black olives on my pizza. Preferably served by a hunk tall dark & Italian guy with a limited english vocabulary and 6 pack abs... (snerk)

My all time favorite is double cheese, with lots and lots of green peppers. I grew up in an Italian community and pizza shops were on every corner. When I moved 200 miles away to a German community they didn't know pizza and I have to beg for the peppers!

My favorite pizza is plain cheese. My family likes pepperoni, so sometimes I might try a slice of their pizza. Every now and then I live on the edge and make myself a spinach pizza.

For me, the best toppings are those found on a Quattro Stagioni (Four Seasons) pizza, including prosciutto, artichoke, black olive, and mushroom, each on just 1/4 of the pizza. This has been my favorite since I ate it on my trip to Rome.
