Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place the pita breads on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they do not overlap.
Spread 2-3 tablespoons of pizza sauce evenly on each pita bread, leaving a small border around the edges.
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the pizza sauce on each pita.
Distribute the diced red and green bell peppers, sliced red onions, halved cherry tomatoes, and sliced black olives evenly over the cheese.
Sprinkle each pizza with a pinch of dried oregano and dried basil for added flavor.
Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over the top of each pita pizza.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly, and the edges are slightly crispy.
Remove from the oven and allow the pita pizzas to cool for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Slice each pita pizza into quarters if desired, and enjoy your homemade veggie pita pizzas!
