Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Whole wheat pita bread
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 2 cups Cooked chicken breast (grilled or roasted, sliced into strips)
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese (part-skim, shredded)
- 4 cups Mixed greens (baby spinach, arugula, or spring mix)
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes (halved)
- 1 small Cucumber (thinly sliced)
- 2 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the whole wheat pita breads on a baking sheet and brush each one lightly with olive oil.
Sprinkle the pita breads evenly with garlic powder.
Divide and evenly distribute the cooked chicken breast slices over the pita breads.
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the chicken.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the pita bread is slightly crispy.
While the pizzas are baking, prepare the salad topping: In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber slices.
In a small bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, remaining olive oil (if any is left), salt, and black pepper to make the dressing.
Drizzle the dressing over the mixed greens and toss lightly to coat.
Once the pizzas are done baking, remove them from the oven and carefully place the fresh salad mixture over the top of each pizza.
Serve immediately and enjoy this healthy and satisfying pizza with a refreshing salad twist!
