EXPERT TIPS

You can use a 4-ounce can of mushrooms pieces and stems, drained, instead of the fresh mushrooms.

For lunch the next day, stuff remaining pitas with shredded lettuce, sliced tomato and any leftover veggies and cheese. Drizzle stuffed pita with your favorite dressing. Oh, so good!

I really liked the pizza. I think it's a great idea for vegetarian dishes. I personally will adjust the basil the next time I make it though. It was a little strong for me. I love the pita bread. I love thin crust pizzas and this was fabulouis. I would add a pinch of salt.

This is a wonderful lighter take on pizza. It is especially wonderful in the summertime and a great way to get in delicious vegetables. These little pizzas make wonderful appetizers to serve for comapny or on game day!
