Ham & Cheese Turnovers

This week, we had a very simple and very tasty meal of ham and cheese turnovers.

First, let me applaud Real Simple for creating something they claim is kid friendly that really is! Too many times, I think magazines call something "kid friendly" just because it has a sauce for dipping.

This meal really was kid friendly. I made the boys' versions with ham and "boy cheese" (what Mitchell calls sliced cheese).

For a more grown-up version, I made our turnovers with prosciutto and shredded Italian-blend cheese. The boys had theirs with honey mustard for dipping, and we had ours with marinara. A yummy salad rounded out the meal (carrots for Noah, as he doesn't quite do salad yet.)

You don't really need to use the recipe to make this meal: You start with refrigerated pizza crust, roll it out, add your filling, roll and bake. Couldn't be easier!

Mitchell enjoyed it so much that he had two turnovers at dinner and even asked if he could have one in his school lunch the next day!
