How to Make Pizza Pitas

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. While oven preheats, remove pita breads from freezer.
  3. Chop 1/2 medium onion into small pieces.
  4. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Sauté onion until softened, about 3-5 minutes.
  5. Add 8 ounces sliced mushrooms to the pan; cook until tender, about 5 minutes.
  6. Stir in 1 teaspoon soy sauce. Set aside.
  7. Combine 1/2 cup pitted Kalamata olives, 2 tablespoons capers, and 1/2 cup halved cherry tomatoes in a bowl. Set aside.
  8. In a separate pan, sauté 5 ounces fresh spinach until wilted. Add 1/2 cup canned chickpeas (drained and rinsed).
  9. Season with 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom and 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro. Set aside.
  10. Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce (amount depends on pita size, about 2 tablespoons per pita) on each pita bread.
  11. Divide the three topping combinations evenly among the pitas. You can choose one, two, or all three!
  12. Top each pita with 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese.
  13. Season with freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  14. Bake for 5-8 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and golden brown.
