Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Whole wheat pita bread
- 1 cup Marinara sauce
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup Baby spinach
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 cup Sliced black olives
- 0.25 cup Red onion (thinly sliced)
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Place the pita breads on the prepared baking sheet, arranging them in a single layer.
Spread about 2 tablespoons of marinara sauce evenly over each pita, leaving a small border around the edges.
Sprinkle a generous layer of shredded mozzarella cheese over the marinara sauce on each pita.
Top each pita pizza with a handful of baby spinach, halved cherry tomatoes, sliced black olives, and thinly sliced red onion.
Sprinkle a pinch of dried oregano over each pita for extra flavor. If you like a little heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes.
Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over the toppings on each pita pizza to enhance the flavor and help them cook evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges of the pita are lightly crispy.
Remove the pita pizzas from the oven and let them cool for 2 minutes before serving.
Cut into wedges if desired, and serve warm. Enjoy your Meatless Pita Pizza!
