If you have picky eaters you understand the frustration when it comes to making dinner. You have a choice between making something that you know they’ll like or making something that you know is good for them. If you’ve had a hard day, making something that they like sure has its benefits, a peaceful meal, that gets you away from the table quickly. However, make something that they don’t like and your day feels like it will never end. 

I never know what my week is going to be like, so on Sunday when I’m planning the menu, I fill the weekdays with simple recipes that I know that the kids will like and will avoid table tantrums.

One of their favorites is this Philly Cheese Bread, I think it has to do with the cheese and the pizza crust, because what kid doesn’t like pizza. I like it because, it’s pretty simple to make, it avoids table tantrums and if I serve it with some fruit and vegetables I know that they are getting a pretty healthy meal. Win, Win for a tired mom!

1 pound lean ground sirloin

Philly Cheese Bread Recipe

Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground sirloin in olive oil. Add the onion and bell peppers and cook until the onions and peppers are tender. 

Stir in the steak sauce, water, bouillon cubes and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until liquid is completely absorbed. Set aside.

Place parchment paper on a baking sheet. Stretch pizza dough on the parchment paper.

Place four slices of cheese on the pizza dough, near the edge of the dough.

Spoon the meat mixture over the cheese, staying away from the edges.

Top the meat mixture with the remaining cheese.

Roll the cheese and meat mixture up in the pizza dough. Pinching off the ends.

Bake in a 350°F oven for 15-17 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from oven and let sit for 5-10 minutes before serving.
