Updated October 22, 2008

Ingredients

  • 2
    pita breads (6 inches in diameter)
  • 2
    cups sliced fresh mushrooms (5 ounces)
  • 1
    small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/4
    cup chopped green bell pepper
  • 2
    tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves or 2 teaspoons dried basil leaves
  • 1
    cup finely shredded reduced-fat mozzarella cheese (4 ounces)
  • 1
    tablespoon grated fat-free Parmesan cheese topping

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 425°F. Split each pita bread around edge with knife to make 2 rounds. Place rounds, cut sides up, on ungreased cookie sheet. Top rounds with mushrooms, onion and bell pepper. Sprinkle with basil and cheeses.
  • 2
    Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until cheese is melted. Cut each round into 8 wedges.

  • 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!
