Ingredients
  

4 whole wheat pitas

2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

1 cup roasted red bell peppers, sliced

1/2 cup fresh spinach, chopped

1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

2 tablespoons olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh basil leaves for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Prepare the Pitas: Place the whole wheat pitas on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle the olive oil over each pita, spreading it evenly with a brush or spoon.

      Season the Pitas: Sprinkle garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and pepper over the pitas to enhance their flavor.

        Add Cheese and Toppings: Evenly distribute the shredded mozzarella cheese over each pita, leaving a small border around the edges. Top with slices of roasted red bell peppers, chopped spinach, and crumbled feta cheese. If you like a bit of heat, sprinkle red pepper flakes over the toppings.

          Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and lightly golden, and the pitas are crisp.

            Garnish and Serve: Once baked, remove the pita pizzas from the oven and allow them to cool for a minute. Garnish with fresh basil leaves before slicing into quarters and serving warm.
