Pita Pizza
1 pizza size 12-inch, Preparation Time 30 minutes
Sometimes quick and easy is what you're looking for, and for us it's a Pita Pizza. You can buy ready-made pizza crusts, even whole wheat crusts, but the ingredient list most often resembles the contents of a chemistry class not a baker's kitchen. Thankfully, we have access to simple middle eastern whole wheat pitas where the ingredient list is short and sounds more natural. To make things easier, you buy, not make, a simple tomato sauce to speed things along.
- 1 large whole wheat pita
- 1 cup (240 ml) sliced or chopped white "button" mushrooms
- 1 chopped sweet orange or yellow Shepherd pepper or bell pepper
- ½ cup (120 ml) hummus
- ½ cup (120 ml) pitted, sliced black olives
- ½ cup (120 ml) chopped red onion
- ½ cup (120 ml) sliced cherry tomatoes
- a few tablespoons of nutritional yeast to be used as the final topping
- Set your oven for 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190.56 °C).
- Line a pizza sheet or over pan with chef paper to ensure it does not sick and place your pita in position for the toppings.
- With a spoon or brush spread your tomato sauce over the complete surface of your Pita Pizza crust.
- With a small spoon sporadically drop small blobs of hummus.
- Except for the nutritional yeast, scatter the remaining toppings.
- Finish the topping by shrinking on the nutritional yeast.
- Place your Pita Pizza in the over for 25 minutes, remove to cutting broad to cool before slicing and serving.
