A meatless "pizza" served on pita bread and loaded with veggies

Ingredients

  • 4 (7-inch) pitas
  • 2 tsp. bottled minced garlic
  • 1 C. (4 oz.) preshredded part-skim Mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 C. thinly sliced Vidalia or other sweet onion
  • 1 Tbs. cider vinegar
  • 2 tsp. extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper
  • 1 C. quartered grape tomatoes
  • 1/4 C. pitted Kalamata olives, coarsely chopped
  • 2 Tbs. chopped basil leaves
  • 4 C. packaged gourmet salad greens

Directions

Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Place pitas on a baking sheet. Spread 1/2 tsp. garlic on each pita. Sprinkle each pita with 1/4 C. cheese and divide onion evenly among pitas. Bake at 475 degrees for 8 minutes or until edges are lightly browned and cheese is bubbly. While pitas bake, combine vinegar, oil and pepper in a large bowl, stirring with a whisk.
