Pita Pizzas

As we try to eat healthier, we've tried to eliminate going out to eat as often.  I recently read an article by Mark Bitman in TIME (October 2014) magazine where he was encouraging people to cook at home. He mentions that cooking at home is likely to have 200 calories fewer than the food you eat at a restaurant.

We love our Friday pizza!  It has been fun to cash-in the kids' Book-It reward but anything can get out of control. As a family, going our every week is costly in more ways that one.  These pita pizzas were amazing!  I even added some spicy chicken leftovers.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 100 % whole grain pitas
  • 1 T Olive oil
  • Mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • Pizza sauce (I use organic, natural sauce)
  • Feta cheese, crumbled
  • Assorted veggies





DIRECTIONS:
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.  
  2. Brush olive oil onto pita bread.
  3.  Top with sauce, spread.
  4. Add cheeses and your favorite veggies.
  5. Bake until cheese is melted.
