Mini Pita-Pizzas

Prep time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: 10 minutes

When you're in a crunch for time or just craving some pizza, this is definitely the meal to have. It takes less than ten minutes to bake and you can make as many as you want.

What you need:
  • Pitas (I prefer the Greek variety because the regular ones with pockets tend to crisp up and leave air bubbles)

  • Pizza sauce (surprisingly, Master's Choice makes a damn good pizza sauce. For a no-name store brand, this is the sh*t)

  • Any toppings you want, such as mushrooms, green peppers, onion, grilled chicken broccoli, pineapples, bacon bits (yah I love Hawaiian pizza, damn straight) or whatever happens to be in your fridge

  • Shredded cheese (like mozzarella... yummy!)

  • If you like, you can add more zip with a dash of Italian herbs, oregano, pepper, or red chili flakes

  • Having a pizza cutter rolly-thing makes this whole thing a great deal funner
First things first you have to preheat your oven to 375°C. My oven is busted because my landlord won't fix it so I always use my toaster oven. This recipe is perfect for the toaster oven! Then you can pile your pita with sauce, any toppings you like and most importantly cheese. I like to sprinkle some Italian herbs on top for more authenticity. By this time the oven is nice and preheated and you can pop the pita in... and you will have the most delicious express lunch or dinner in ten minutes! This is much better then pretending people are pizza and everything.

Mike approved.
Since pitas come in packages of 6 you can have this 6 days in a row!
