Lazy Pita Pizzas


You know when you need to whip something up because people are expecting an interesting supper?
These pita pizzas are a great choice.
The other great thing is that you don't need to defrost anything, because chances are, you have all the ingredients you need right in the fridge. Vary the amount of toppings depending on how many pizzas you make.

Basics: mozarella and parmesan cheeses, salsa, pitas.

Toppings I used: prochiutto, broccoli, black olives, dry basil and parsley.

1. Preheat oven to 400
2. Line a baking tray with parchment (easy clean up!)
3. Spread out your pitas on tray
4. Spoon and spread about 1 tbsp of salsa on each.
5. Top each with chopped olives and prochiutto
6. Add parm and mozzarella to each
7. Top with mini-mini broccoli florets
8. Drizzle each with olive oil
9. Sprinkle with dry basil and dry parsley
10. Bake for 15 minutes or until pitas get crispy and cheese gets golden.


*** When you have pitas lying around that need to be eaten, this is such a fast idea.

- Think about it...you have your crust made, your sauce done (who doesn't have salsa???) and you can vary your toppings with the leftovers in your fridge...any type of coldcut meat will do. And broccoli??? Come on, I bet you have some in the fridge right now! Don't have mozzarella? Use cheddar!

Eat these lazy pitas and enjoy!
