Use A Pizza Cutter To Cut Food

My husband had a stroke. It was hard for him to cut up his food, so I started using a pizza cutter to cut his food into easy to handle small pieces. I also use it for my young grandchildren that are not sure how to use a fork yet.

I have been doing this for years! Started out doing it to cut food up for my kids when they were little and it has stuck...now I do us my pizza cutter to cut up all kinds of things!

Great tip!

Tip: Pizza Cutter Uses

My girl friend Michelle recently shared this tip with me. She uses her pizza wheel to cut so many things: pancakes, chicken strips, french toast, anything! Particularly useful for cutting up your child's food.

When I made brownies the other day, the pizza wheel worked so much better than sawing with a knife. Try it out today!

I, like speedmom, use kitchen scissors for cutting pizza, cutting fat from meat before I cook it and a host of other things. (01/25/2010)

Tip: Pizza Cutter Uses

Being a mother of triplets I needed to cut up food for my children quickly when they were young. I found that a pizza cutter worked for way more than pizza. Grilled cheese sandwiches, any sandwich, french toast, toast, pancakes, quesadillas, and waffles. Try it you'll become addicted too!

Using a pizza cutter to cut brownies is great because the pieces are more even and the brownies usually won't stick to the pizza cutter.

RE: Pizza Cutter for More than Pizza

As a special ed teacher for very young students with severe disabilities, school food in the lunchroom can be hard to deal with for a whole class in the short amount of time they have to eat. We use a clean pair of kitchen scissors to quickly cut pizza, meat, spaghetti, etc. into bite size pieces. A pizza cutter might not work on our school trays. The scissors work well and are quick. Of course, we wouldn't use them with a student we would potentially teach to use a knife to cut their own food. (07/09/2006)

Reminder: use only the METAL pizza cutters because the plastic or nylon ones melt at the edge with hot items! I've ruined a couple. lol (08/24/2006)
