Pitza


My boyfriend and I came up with 5 minute pizza - use pita bread, tomato sauce/olive oil/pesto for the base, cut up random veggies (in this case bell peppers and zucchini from the market), and shredded or sliced mozza cheese laid on top. Stick the whole pita in the toaster oven and push the toast button down (repeat if you desire crispier pitza).

Cut it up in pizza slices and serve as a light dinner/hors d'oeuvre/munchie. (unless your guest was an unappreciative carnivorous American, it is a great healthy smackeroo to offer up (add chicken if catering to such an audience).

The Lebanese guy at the market inspired me: he coined the term pitza - zitar bread (with the spices and such on top), and then tomatoes, eggplant, and roasted veg on top. YUM! This was our spontaneous-whatever-we-had-in-the-fridge timesaver version.

Create your own and post the results!

Love,
pamplemousse
