Today I want to share with you one of my favorite leftovers – flatbread pizzas!
Besides being amazingly easy to make, it’s delicious, healthy, and versatile. Plus, you don’t have to spend hours in the kitchen trying to cook one up.
All you need is a package of frozen whole-wheat flatbreads in your freezer and a little bit of creativity on your part.
Summer is here. I’ve been experimenting with different toppings to match the season.
For this recipe, I’ve ditched the classic sauce and topped the crust with cheese, thin slices of raw potato, zucchini, and a drizzle of oil.
I’ve also made a version with tuna and capers, and a vegetarian version with avocado.
Both were topped with crunchy sweet pea sprouts and a drizzle of lemon juice. They were delicious. Yummy!
But the possibilities don’t stop there. I’ve also had great success with other types of fillings.
Some of my favorites are pesto, chicken, tomato, and whole-leaf parsley.
Or, if you’re feeling fancy, try tomato sauce with a cracked egg on top and fresh spinach. The possibilities are endless, so don’t be shy.
These leftovers deserve to be loved and enjoyed just as much as the rest of our food.
So the next time you’re wondering what to do with leftovers, try pita pizza.
Trust me, you won’t be disappointed!
