Pita Bread Pizzas

This one is pretty self-explanatory. I love this version of pizza because it doesn't involve making dough and can be made in a hurry. Try letting older children make this for lunch or supper one day.

Start with whole wheat pita pockets.
Generously spread each one with tomato sauce.
Sprinkle with pizza or Italian seasoning.
Add each person's favourite toppings. A great way to accommodate even the fussiest eaters in the family!
Cover with grated cheese. (Whatever kind you have on hand-it doesn't always have to be mozzarella.)
Bake in a 375 degree oven for about 10-12 minutes. Slice into wedges and enjoy!

Easy Pizza Dough

This is my favorite and easiest pizza dough recipe.

Ingredients
1 package active dry yeast
1 cup warm water (105 to 115 degrees)
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons olive oil or canola oil
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt

Instructions
Disolve yeast in warm water in medium bowl. Stir in remaining ingredients. Beat vigorously until all the flour is mixed in. Let rest for 5 minutes. Spread dough out on a greased pan.

I often double the recipe for a thicker pizza. I cook it on a big cookie sheet. Here is what I do with the dough. I let it sit or rise for about a half hour or so. I bake the dough by its self at 350 degrees for 7-10 minutes (until lightly browned). Then I add the sauce and toppings. I cook it for another 10 or so minutes. Pull it out of the oven and we have a wonderful homemade pizza just the way we like it!!
