Frugal Adventures: Pita Pizza

Homemade food can be fast food...yes!


Pita Pocket Pizza

Ingredients:

• Forgotten pita pocket halves (out of the freezer)
• Left over spaghetti Sauce
• Shredded cheese purchased in bulk from Costco (I hate grating cheese)
• Salt, pepper, dried basil (Andrew feels the need for dried basil on his pizza)
• Fresh basil from the garden (this was my topping)
• Bacon bits (also from Costco to carnivore-up Lucas' pizza)

I split the pita halves into two pieces and then overlapped them to make the round "pizza" shape. Added sauce, toppings and cheese then broiled at 500 for 4 minutes.

I really wish I had taken a picture of these pizzas. My son kept clamoring for more.

Here is a photo renditioning of said pita pizzas from instructables.com

I was also impressed that this makeshift dinner used up freezer and fridge leftovers, was altered deliciously by one of my two basil plants AND was a hit with my son and 5 year old niece.

Sensory Trajectory

My kitchen smells of cut grass, baked beans, cornbread, fresh peaches and cinnamon. Life could not be better.
