Pita Pizza Salad

Pita Pizza Salad is a healthy version of an old favorite.  Lots of vegetables and whole wheat pita make this a tasty treat.

Ingredients:

• 4 whole wheat pita breads, halved
• 4 tablespoons prepared pizza sauce
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for garnish
• 8 large romaine leaves
• 1/2 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1/4 cup sliced black olives
• 1/4 cup fat free Italian dressing

Directions:

Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Place pita halves directly on oven rack to toast, turning once, about 5 minutes. Spread 1/2 tablespoon of pizza sauce inside each pita half. Sprinkle 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese inside pizza halves. Place two pita halves on each of four serving plates. Shred romaine leaves and place in a bowl with mushrooms, tomatoes, olives and dressing. Toss gently. Stuff pita halves with salad. Garnish with remaining grated Parmesan cheese.

Number of Servings: Four.
