Ordering pizza is a popular thing for a night with friends, but Pita Pizzas can save you money and time. They’re fast and easy to make and a great choice for a quick lunch to eat on the way to class or a late night study snack. Any veggies, meats, spices or sauces lying around in the fridge can be mixed-and-matched and used to make a Pita Pizza.
There are three alternative recipes:
Design-your-own
Ingredients:
- 1 piece whole-wheat pita

- ½ cup marinara sauce
- Sliced pizza toppings (pepperoni, veggies, spices or whatever you like)
BBQ Chicken

Tomato Basil
Ingredients:
- 1 piece whole-wheat pita
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella
- ½ cup marinara sauce (optional)

Directions

- Spread the ½ cup of sauce on the pita.
- Evenly layer cheese on top of the sauce. Then arrange the toppings on top.
- For a toaster, toast for 3-7 or until cheese is melted. For oven, bake at 350°F for 10-15 mins or until cheese is melted.
