Michael and I were both craving junk food for dinner tonight. A bunch of thoughts went through my head after I mentioned this to Michael... Golden Corral has fried chicken and then I won't have to cook... Golden Corral is pretty expensive, we don't really need to be spending the money right now... Andover has a KFC, that would be a little cheaper... Michael doesn't really like fried chicken... Maybe we could go to Dillons and I could get fried chicken, Michael could get pizza, and I could get Chinese food for the kids... We just drove passed Dillons... We could turn around... Time to consult Michael... So I asked Michael, and he was saying how he was at a lower weight than he's been in a while. I, too, am down. We decided it would be a better choice to make something healthy at home. Michael wanted to go out and get pizza, but I remembered we had the supplies to make Pita Pizzas! So we made homemade pizza instead of eating out or getting food to go and bringing it home! Yay for good choices! Always feels better after the fact than it does in the moment when you want fried chicken, a personal weakness for me. Here's the recipe for what I did tonight! Enjoy!
Pita Pizza
1 whole wheat pita
4 tbsp pizza or pasta sauce (I always have pasta sauce on hand, so that's what we had tonight)
Assorted spices
Assorted veggies
Meat, if desired (we didn't have any, or I was too lazy to brown hamburger)
2-4 tbsp shredded cheese
Preheat oven to 450. Assemble pizza as desired. Bake 10-12 minutes. Enjoy!
Pretty straight forward! I think next time we make pizza I'm going to try having a Flatbread crust. :) This one was, as always is, great! Here are the combinations our family enjoyed tonight:
Jen - Garlic Powder, Italian Seasoning, Red Pepper Flakes, Torn Spinach Leaves, Sliced Red Onion, Chopped Green Pepper, Mexican Blend Cheese, Mozzarella Cheese
Michael - Garlic Powder, Oregano, Sliced Red Onion, Chopped Green Pepper, Mozzarella Cheese
Kids - Mexican Blend Cheese, Mozzarella Cheese
I'm pleased to say that everyone ate all their food! This was a great recipe! And now that I've eaten, I'm glad we ate healthy. ;) Although I would still take fried chicken if someone wanted to bring it over! :P Any takers?? No...?? Well, better luck next time! ;) Happy Tuesday, Friends! Have a great night! Luv ya!
