Pesto Pita Pizza
These vegan pita pizzas are so popular and when we make them around our house, they never last long. They are super quick to make without the fuss of making pizza dough.
Prep time 20 minutes
Serves 4
Ingredients:
4 whole wheat pita
1/2 cup vegan pesto
1 medium onion
1 red bell pepper, thin slices
1 tomato, sliced wedges
1 garlic clove, minced
3 Tbs. kalamata olives, sliced
3 Tbs. Marinated Artichoke Hearts, chopped
2 Tbs. olive oil
1/4 tsp. oregano
1/4 tsp. basil
2 Tbs, sesame seeds, toasted
Preparation:
1. Preheat oven to 300 ° F, or use a toaster oven.
2. Mince the onion and saute with olive oil on low heat. Slice the pepper and add to onions, saute for 5 minutes.
3. Place the 4 pitas on a baking tray. Place in the oven for 3 minutes to slightly cook the crust of the pita and give it a light crispy texture. Remove and set aside to cool while you slice the toppings.
4. Spread the basil on the top of each pita. Add the olives, artichoke hearts, onions, tomato slices and peppers. Sprinkle the toasted sesame seeds over the top.
