Pitta Pizzas

This is an old school Weight Watchers recipe that I discovered about a million years ago. It can be a wee bit footery but is so satisfying if you are trying to be healthy and craving pizza! Toppings are your choice, add whatever you like but this recipe is what I tend to go for and is absolutely delish.

 

Serves 2

 

Ingredients;

 

4 pitta breads, white or wholemeal

8 tablespoons of passata or tinned tomatoes

Oregano

Salt and pepper

1 red onion, diced

1 pepper, diced

2 slices parma ham

125g low fat mozzarella.

 

 

1. Preheat the oven to 180c/Gas Mark 7.

 

2. First, you need to cut the pitta breads to make them like little pizza bases. Using a small knife, cut about 1cm in from the edge on the top layer right around the whole pitta. This doesn't make much sense I know. Basically, you want to leave the bottom layer on, leave a  1cm "crust" on the top layer but remove the middle of the top layer. You can use the cut outs to make pitta chips.

 

3. Put the pittas on an oven tray and place in the oven for about five minutes to crisp them up. You can use his time to finely chop your veg and your mozzarella (unless you are using the pre grated kind of course!).

 

4. Remove the pittas from the oven and be careful of the hot tray. Put two tablespoons of passata or tinned tomatoes on each pitta, sprinkle with a little oregano and salt and pepper.

 

5. Divide your vegetables evenly between each pitta. Tear up the parma ham into small strips and do the same and then again with the mozzarrella. You can add more herbs and seasoning now as well if you want.

 

6. Put the pittas in the oven for 10-15 minutes or until everything is hot and the cheese has melted.

 

If you want to bulk this up with more veg, you could top it with a handful of rocket and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar!

 

Enjoy! xoxo
