Wolfgang Puck's Back-To-School Recipes

When it comes to feeding the kids during the school week, it's all about keeping it simple and easy. Oh, and making sure that they will actually eat what you're making. Something chef Wolfgang Puck does for his kids is to sneak vegetables into tasty dishes like this Chicken & Vegetable Quesadilla. Or he makes homemade pizza using fresh ingredients his kids love.

How did he come up with the recipe? Puck says that "when my son Cameron was younger, this was the only pizza he would eat. He told me just what he wanted on his pizza, and he's eaten it the same way ever since." Use Puck's pizza dough recipe as a base and ask your kids what they want on their pizza, and as long as it's not too bizarre, then give it a try. 

Try your hand at making these easy dishes for your kids to keep them satisfied and well fed.
