• Brush both sides of the pitas with olive oil and grill until marked, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Top with some of the tomato-olive mixture, ricotta, mozzarella and onion. Cover and grill until the cheese melts, 2 to 3 minutes.

QUICK AND HEALTHY BROILED PITA PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat broiler of electric oven or toaster oven.
• If pita shell is hard, microwave for 10-15 seconds until it is pliable. Do not split it or it probably won't support the toppings.
• Slice tomato so you have 4 thin slices.
• Arrange slices on pita so that it is mostly covered.
• Spread cottage cheese over tomato slices.
• Sprinkle cottage cheese with basil and oregano.
• Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over all.
• Top with any other veggies or toppings you wish.
• Place on broiler tray and broil about 6-8 inches from the heat until cheese is melted and starting to brown (about 7-10 minutes), watching carefully so it does not burn.
• If the tomato is still cool, you can microwave it for 10-20 seconds until it is heated through.
• I am not sure how to broil in a gas oven. I am sorry for the lack of directions on that method.

• Place the pitas on a baking sheet and spread top evenly with tomato paste, sprinkle with the oregano then top with the remaining pita toppings ending with the parmesan.
• Bake for 15 minutes or until hot and the green pepper is done.
