Healthy, Easy, Pita Pizza’s

Now tell me that doesn’t look divinely delicious. Well, It is. The good news? It’s just about the easiest meal you can throw together, and a very health option. I went to Lake Powell this past weekend with a group of about 20 people, and I was in charge of the food. I wanted to make it as easy, and as healthy as possible, and these Pita Pizza’s worked out SO well. I plan on making them at home! 

Ingredients: 

Pita (you can use white or whole wheat)

Pizza Sauce, Pesto Sauce, BBQ sauce (depending on your flavor of pizza)

Cheese: We used mozzarella, but you could get fancy (Parmesan, feta, goat cheese, Gouda) I am not a huge fan of cheese, so I did mine without and I thought it was delish!

Meats: Pepperoni, Canadian Bacon, Chicken, Sausage…etc

Fruits & Veggies: tomatoes, green peppers, mushrooms, olives, avocado, spinach, red onions, pineapple, etc. You really can just be creative with this!

You can either cook these in the oven or on a grill, depending on what you have available to you. It only takes about 5 mins, or until the cheese is melted. They really are so good, and a great meal for kids and entertaining. 

On a side note…while on said Lake Powell trip I decided to go running the morning after we got there. The run was great. The temperature was PERFECT. I got in about six miles and was heading back to the houseboat where I decided to sprint the last leg of my run from the dock to the boat. The dock is made up of rock slabs that aren’t cemented down so I knew I needed to be careful. I guess I wasn’t careful enough! I stepped in the crack between two rocks and was down before I could do much about it, rolling my ankle. It was pretty dang painful. Turns out I tore my deltoid ligament in my foot 🙁 I have been in a LOT of pain, and I know I’ll be out for a while as far as running goes. I am definitely appreciating a healthy, well functioning body at this point. This is going to be a rough recovery!

On another side note…I have been working with a friend on setting up a website which will be very similar to my blog, (don’t worry I’m not getting rid of this guy,) but has more of a specific search engine purpose. I’ll be posting a lot of useful information, so you can mosey on over HERE if you’re interested. It’s still in the preparatory phases, and the design work hasn’t been done yet, but I want to start getting it out there. It has been and will continue to be a really fun project for me! I’ll let you know when the official http://howtolosebellyfat101.com/ is up, but you’re more than welcome to browse the info that is posted as of right now.
