Kalamata Olive Pizza
If you're looking for a quick lunch or light dinner, pizza on a pita is a great 'go to' choice. Pitas make a perfect crust for an individual pizza and involve no cooking. This quick and easy pizza has loads of flavor and is a healthy alternative to a fast food or processed-foods meal. Don't be afraid to get creative with the ingredients! If olive aren't for you then you can use grilled chicken, caramelized onions, or and spinach. Or try all of the above! We used Tomato Flakes to sweeten this recipe and add great texture, and Dried Basil for its light peppery taste and classic Mediterranean fragrance.
