INGREDIENTS

• 4 pita breads, preferably whole-wheat
• Small jar of pasta sauce
• 8 ounces mozarella cheese, sliced or grated
• Dried oregano or thyme, to sprinkle

• 1 small red onion, thinly sliced and lightly fried
• Mushrooms, sliced and fried
• 1 can (7 ounces) corn, drained jalapeno chilies, sliced
• Black or green olives, pitted and sliced

DIRECTIONS

• Prepare two or three toppings of your choice for the pizzas. Preheat the broiler and lightly toast the pita breads on each side.
• Spread pasta sauce on each pita, right to the edge. This prevents the edges of the pita from burning.
• Arrange cheese slices or grated cheese on top of each pita and sprinkle with herbs and seasoning.
• Add the toppings of your choice and then broil the pizzas for 5-8 min until they are golden brown and bubbly. Serve immediately.
