by member: violynn  Whole Grain Pita Pizza
This pizza is so good you'll swear it came from a brick oven pizzeria.
Ingredients
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 °F (175 °C). Flour the bottom of the pita. Place the floured side down in a frying pan on medium heat. Use a spatula to push the middle of the pita down. Brown the bottom of the pita to your liking.
- Remove the pita from heat and spread tomato paste sauce around, leaving about 1/2" all the way around the pita for the crust.
- Sprinkle half of the basil onto the sauce.
- Sprinkle cheese substitute onto the sauce across the pita evenly.
- Sprinkle the rest of the basil onto the cheese.
- Place the pizza in the oven on a cookie sheet or pizza stone for about three minutes or until cheese melted.
- Turn the oven on broil to brown the cheese to your liking.
- Remove, cut with pizza cutter and enjoy!

Sounds great. This could be with chicken too and some organic/low sodium real toomaters or matersauce and some Mrs. Dash Roasted Red Pepper seasoning. Yum.

I'm eating a variation of this right now. But mine is only 4 pts. Instead of tomato paste use about 1 1/2 - 2 tbsp pizza sauce. It's .5 pts for 4 tbsp. Then 1/4 cup of reg cheese is 2 pts. and pepperoni is .2 pts a slice. 5 slices = 1 pt. And the pita is a pt as well.
I didn't fry it, I just put it in my toaster oven for about 5 min then toast it for another couple of min. I have to have a crunchy crust.

You can do so much more with this! Add peppers, onions and zucchini, add spices to the tomato paste, add spinach along with the basil! Sustitute 1/4 c. of the mozzarella with parmesan, if you can (it has lots more flavour).

The pita will count as your 1 servings of grains for the day but it is REALLY good.
