Mushroom Pita Pizza
Ingredients
1 tsp. olive oil
1/2 C. onion, diced
2 small basil leaves, fresh
1/2 C. mushrooms, shiitake or cultivated
2 tsp. fresh oregano, chopped, or 1/2 tsp. crushed dried basil
1 oz. fresh low fat goat cheese
1 6-inch whole wheat pita bread
2 plum tomatoes, fresh thinly
1/2 C. zucchini, thinly sliced (optional)
3 Tbsp. parmesan cheese (optional)
Cooking Instructions
Preheat oven or toaster oven to 400 degrees F. In a heavy skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onions and mushrooms; sauté for 5 minutes until the onion and mushrooms are tender. Meanwhile, split pita bread in half horizontally. Place pita halves directly on oven rack. Bake for 5 minutes or until lightly toasted. Arrange tomato slices and basil leaves on bread. Scatter cooked onions and mushrooms over top. Sprinkle with oregano and goat cheese; add sautéed zucchini and parmesan cheese, if used. Bake 3 to 8 minutes, or until begins to brown around edges. Remove from oven, and cut each pita half into wedges.
