Ingredients
- 4 to 6 (112 to 168 grams) pita bread (small size)
- 1/3 cup basil pesto
- 1 jar (7 ounce) sun-dried tomatoes (finely chopped)
- 1/4 cup black olives, sliced
- 1/4 cup pine nuts (toasted and chopped)
- 3/4 cup low-fat mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated (low fat)
How to Make
-
Step 1: Pita ... Spread each pita bread with the pesto. I make sure to stir the pesto well (especially if using a jar store bought brand), to mix up the oil. I also use a slotted spoon to let some of the oil drain before adding it to the pita bread. Make sure to spread the pesto over the pita, but leave a little border.
-
Step 2: Toppings ... In a small bowl, mix the cheeses, tomatoes, olives, nuts; then top over each pita bread.
-
Step 3: Bake ... In a preheated 375 degree oven - middle shelf, bake on a baking sheet lined with foil or parchment paper for easy clean up. Bake approximately 8-12 minutes until the cheese is melted.
-
Step 4: Serve ... You can cut them in triangles and serve as an appetizer or snack; or you can also you can serve them as a light lunch or dinner. ENJOY!
