Whole Wheat Pita Pizza Research
When I need a healthy meal that is ready in a hurry, I normally turn to Whole Wheat Pita Pizzas. My toaster oven warms up quickly; I assemble the pizza while that's happening. A quick eight minute baking time and I have a nutritious version of pizza that is ready quicker than you can get delivery. Here are my recipes for a basic, no frills whole wheat pita pizza and a Hawaiian whole wheat pita pizza. Enjoy!
Below are the amounts needed for one whole wheat pita pizza; just multiply by the number of pizzas you need.
What You Need For Each Basic Pizza
1 whole wheat pita
3 tablespoons of jarred pasta sauce
1/4 cup of shredded fontina or mozzarella cheese
Directions
Heat your toaster oven to 475 degrees F, with a baking sheet in the oven. …show more content…
Evenly spread the shredded cheese over the sauce. Once the toaster oven has reached 475 degrees F, place the pita pizza (or pizzas) on the hot baking sheet. Baking on a heated sheet or pan ensures a crispy crust. Bake for 8 minutes. Let cool slightly before slicing.
That is all you need for a basic recipe, but the beauty of this recipe is its versatility. You can add just about any chopped vegetable or cooked meat to the pita before adding the cheese. I also like to sprinkle dried basil, oregano and thyme over the cheese before baking. One of my favorite versions of the pita pizza is the Hawaiian.
What You Need For Each Hawaiian Pizza
1 whole wheat pita
3 tablespoons of jarred barbeque sauce
1/4 cup of diced pineapple
2 tablespoons of diced ham (fully cooked)
Directions
Heat your toaster oven to 475 degrees F, with a baking sheet in the oven.
Evenly spread the barbeque sauce over the pita, leaving 1/4 inch around the edges dry. Sprinkle the ham and pineapple over the top, then evenly spread the shredded cheese over that. Once the toaster oven has reached 475 degrees F, place the pita pizza (or pizzas) on the hot baking sheet. Bake for 8 minutes. Let cool slightly before slicing.
