Greasy carry-out delivery pizza is great, but flabby stomachs and jiggly thighs suck.
Home made pizzas are healthy and delicious, but who actually has the time to wait for the dough to rise after a busy work day?!
Follow this method for a quick, easy and super healthy thin-crust pizza hack!
Instead of making the dough from scratch, simply substitute that with pocket-less pita bread, readily available at your local grocery store.
Start by laying out the pita on a pizza stone or cast iron pan, if not available you could also use a lined baking sheet. Also a good idea to start pre heating your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Start by spreading a good layer of tomato paste on the pita. I usually prefer to use paste rather than sauce as it is thicker in consistency so it's less likely to make the crust soggy.
Gather the ingredients you'd like to use and chop them into smaller pieces/ small cubes. Pretty much anything you like can become a pizza topping, the ones shown above are just what I like to use: sausages, shredded mozzarella, zucchini and cilantro.
Mmm I love cilantro!
Generously apply your preferred toppings, covering up as much of the base as possible. As it is thin crust, make sure not to overload it to the point that the crust cannot support the toppings!
One tip I've picked up from my years of eating take-out/ delivery pizza is that cheese ALWAYS goes on last. This helps to prevent your other toppings from drying out or getting burnt, as well as helping to hold everything in place!
When ready, place into oven and cook on middle rack at 400 degrees F for 8-10 mins until cheese is nice and melty. Cool slight on a wire rack.
I like to serve my pizzas directly on a bamboo cutting board. It makes using a pizza roller much easier, plus it looks super pro!
Mmmm pizzaaaaaa *insert Homer donut face here*
Definitely do try it out and don't forget to let me know what you guys think too!!
