Pita Pizza

Ingredients

  • 2 pita breads, whole wheat
  • 1/2 cup pizza, tomato or pasta sauce (or as desired)
  • 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded (regular or vegan)
  • Your choice of topping (see below)

Instructions

  1. Preheat regular or toaster oven to 400 degrees.
  2. For regular oven: Cover baking sheet with foil. Place pita breads on the baking sheet, scooped side facing up. For toaster oven: No need for a pan. You will be placing directly on the baking rack.
  3. Spread 1/4 cup of sauce evenly over each pita bread, leaving about 1/2 inch border without sauce.
  4. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of cheese over sauce.
  5. Layer and arrange your choice of toppings over the cheese and sauce.
  6. For regular oven: Bake about 10 minutes or until the pita bread reaches desired crispness and cheese starts to bubble and brown. For toaster oven: Place each pizza one at time on the rack of a toaster oven. Toast until the cheese starts to brown and bubble (about 3 or 4 minutes). Serve while hot!

Notes

Choice of toppings:
Onions, chopped (any color)
Bell peppers, sliced or chopped (any color)
Mushrooms, sliced
Veggie or regular meats (cooked)
Beans, cooked
Pineapple, tidbits
Tomatoes, sliced
Olives, pitted and sliced (black or green)
Zucchini, sliced thin
Herbs, fresh (oregano, basil)
Garlic powder
Parmesan cheese
Crushed red pepper flakes
Cheese, shredded, variety
Many others... use your imagination!

You can use more or less sauce and toppings as desired. Your pizza will be as healthy as the toppings are.

Vegan cheese may not brown and bubble. When using vegan cheese remove the pizza when the crust starts to brown and the toppings are cooked.

Cut these pita pizzas in quarters for delicious appetizers!
