If your looking for a quick and easy recipe than your in the right spot! I’m going to share a little secret with you today..
How do you like the idea of a 3 minute pizza? kinda crazy right! but it’s true. This pizza recipe has been in the family for years. Originally, my mom would use the big homemade pitas for the crust, but When I got married I didn’t have the big homemade pitas. I started using the store bought pitas instead and they were worked perfectly!
Years ago it was very hard to find pita bread in a supermarket, I had to get them at the Middle-Eastern grocery stores but now you can find them in just about any local supermarket. I usually buy a few packs and store them in the freezer; they can last for months in there.
This recipe comes in handy when you are looking for a to make something quick and easy. I used whole wheat pitas but you can use white or whole wheat. The crispy crust and gooey cheese is delicious. For a basic pizza you will only need 3 ingredients-pita-bread, marinara sauce, and cheese of course. you can make the pizza in the oven or in a toaster oven. If your making them in a toaster oven you should be able to make two at a time.
Quick and Easy Pita Pizza {Just 3 minutes}
Ingredients
- 2 pita breads
- 1/4 cup marinara sauce
- 1/2 cup Mozzarella or Italian blend cheese
Instructions
- If making the pizza in the oven, preheat oven by turning on the broiler and adjust the rack to the middle. If in the toaster oven turn on the toaster to "toast".
- Place two pitas on a metal pan. Spread half the marinara mixture ( about 2 tablespoons) on one pita and the rest on the other. Sprinkle the cheese evenly over both pitas leaving about 1/2 inch for the crust.
- Place pitas in the oven for 2-3 minutes. Check on them every minute to make sure they don't burn.
- Remove from oven and enjoy!
