Easy Pizza Pita

I must be in the mood for pizza lately (of course I’m always in the mood for pizza). Yesterday I posted a recipe for Quesadilla Pizza that looks quick, easy, and delicious. Today I have another quick and easy pizza idea for you.

When you’re in the mood for pizza, but don’t have time to make the crust from scratch a pita makes a great alternative individual pizza crust. This recipe from Daisy Cottage Cheese

I have some fresh ripe Roma tomatoes in my garden right now, I bet they’ll be wonderful on these pizza pitas.

I think these mini pizzas would make a fun lunch, or easy after school snack. They don’t take long to make. Use whole grain pitas for the crust, to make this recipe even healthier.
