As much as I try to change it, my two boys are very picky eaters. I really thought they would become more and more adventurous with food, but at 5 and 6 they eat about a half dozen things.
One food they will eat is pizza. But of course, it can’t be regular pizza with sauce and cheese. My boys used to eat broccoli and meatballs and salsa, now they just want peanut butter and jelly and pizza with no sauce.
Lucky for us Fresh Brothers pizza invited us to a grand opening party on Tuesday at the newest location in Calabasas.
The grand opening was set up like the Fresh Brothers birthday party. Each child had a personal size pizza box to decorate and then they made their own pizza. My kids were able to make exactly what they wanted. They went for dry pizza with cheese and pineapple. It was actually better than a birthday party because my boys ate all of the pizza they made and they were very happy about it.
And I was happy because I had the perfect dinner to bring home. Tuesday was my 8-year wedding anniversary and my husband and I had no plans for the evening (and no babysitter and no time because my husband worked late and no energy because we’re tired). I bought him a gluten-free pizza and he loved it. It was such a treat. It’s not easy to find gluten-free pizza and Fresh Brother’s is very delicious. The crust has good flavor and texture and the sauce is good, which is key.
The gluten-free pizza isn’t just for adult size pizzas. GF is available for children’s birthday parties as well. Kids also get a tshirt as part of the package, which my older son wore the rest of that day. It was a fun afternoon and even though my kids continue to be picky eaters, it was nice that they ate all of their dinner without complaining.
Full Disclosure: For the past 6 months, I have been making gluten-free cookies and brownies for Fresh Brothers Pizza. I decided to shut down the wholesale portion of Yvonne’s Gluten-Free Goodies 2 weeks ago and I no longer work with them. But we still love the pizza! I was not compensated for this post.
