Pita Pizza Pie - So many choices!
Found a new pita bread called Joseph’s Pita Bread that is made with flax, oat bran, & whole grain. This is not the usual pita bread/pocket we’re used to seeing.
It is really thin like a tortilla. The pita is about 6-7 inches across, and you can see some of the grillmarks from when it was baked. It comes in a zipper re-sealable bag, which is great if you’re like me and you lose those darn little plastic ties.
Each pita is only 60 calories and has 4 grams of dietary fiber. So you can get your caloric intake from the yummy toppings instead of the “bread”. I’m using it to make pizzas, sandwiches, even dessert!
This pita will crisp up during baking, giving you the feeling and “snap” sound of a thin crust. This will be very helpful if your weakness is potato chips and you miss that crunch.
Quickie Pizza: 1 pita, 2 Tablespoons no-salt-added tomato sauce, 2-3 slices shaved Black Forest Ham, pineapple chunks (juice squeezed out), & top with 1 ounce low-fat pepperjack cheese. Bake at 425 degrees for 10 minutes. OMG! GOOD!!
Apple Pie Pita: 1 pita, 1 sliced apple, 2 teaspoons low-calorie apple jam (warmed in microwave). Sprinkle cinnamon & Stevia on top. Roll up, seam side down, and bake at 375 degrees for 10-15 min.
Enjoy!
