"Raisin" The Nutritional Bar With Pizza

Contributed by: NAPSA

(NAPSA) - Creative parents know that one of the best ways to get kids to eat "good for them" foods, such as fruits and vegetables, is to incorporate them into popular favorites, like pizza. A pair of recipes that use raisins to give your family a nutritional boost might seem like a stretch, but kids and adults will be delighted with the results.

Raisins rank among the top antioxidant foods, according to USDA government tests. High in potassium, raisins deliver a lot of nutrition. Just 1/4 cup of raisins (1.5 oz.) equals one complete fruit serving.
