Quick and easy dinner or lunch … prep time is about 5 minutes (or as little time as it takes you to open a jar, wash and chop some veggies) and you can personalize it with your favourite veggies! This is how I make it:
What you’ll need:
1 small, preferably natural pita bread (I use Joseph’s flax seed pita – 60 calories and lots of nourishment!)
2 medium mushrooms – sliced whole
1/4 cup baby spinach – rinsed
2.5 tablespoons marinara sauce of your choice
3 sprigs of thyme – leaves shucked off the twiggy part
2 basil leaves – finely chopped
1/2 fresh garlic – finely chopped
a tiny sprinkle of parmesan, feta, or vegan “cheese” (I’ve used all kinds, they’re all equally deliscioso)
Pepper, to taste
Prep:
1. Take the pita, and spread around the marinara evenly across its surface.
2. Layer down the veggies as flatly as possible (this makes the final product easier to cut into slices), then sprinkle on the cheese, finely chopped garlic, finely chopped basil and the thyme.
3. Put in the oven on BROIL until the cheese starts to get melty and the pita a bit golden – once this happens, your easy peas-y pizza pie is ready to munch! Bon Appetit : )
Note: Pair with a big ol’ side salad of greens, beans and veggies for extra nourishment! If you choose to put other veggies on the pizza, make sure they’re not chunky but finely chopped so as to make the final product able to sustain the veggies weight. happy munching!
