Pesto Pita Pizza's!

in food •  7 years ago 

It started snowing on Christmas and continued for nine days with freezing temperatures. Weather like this makes doing anything outside on the homestead unpleasant and allows cabin fever to sneak up on you!

When we get that feeling we try to do something that makes us "feel" as though we've gone out.
Today we did that by making Pesto Pita Pizza's!

We used the following ingredients: Store bought pitas, pesto, fresh mushrooms, onion from our garden, green peppers from our garden that had been frozen, and mozzarella cheese.

We cooked down the mushrooms in a frying pan followed by a quick tossing of the green peppers.
Next we placed 4 pitas on a cookie sheet and spread pesto on them. Then we added mushrooms, onions, green peppers, and finally the cheese.

We placed them in the oven at 350 degrees for 10 minutes and then broiled them for an additional 2 minutes to brown the cheese a little.

We let them cool for a few minutes and then served with salad.

Don't these look good?

If you find yourself getting cabin fever over the winter months try treating your self to something as easy and delicious as Pesto Pita Pizza's.

Why yes, yes they do look so yummy! I think I've got to get up now and go rummage through the kitchen for somethin' to munch on ;) I'll bet there's no "Pesto Pita Pizza in there......... Uurgh!

Well Brother, you can always go the standard route and use tomato sauce....

I think I might! That sounds great! I do however see one of those nasty card board "Red Baron's" in the freezer? I wonder how old that sucka' is? Hmmm..... nah, I can't do it after seeing yours.......

The question becomes: Have you got any beer?
If you do, the red baron is calling your name!!!

Hahaha! Good question? Seems I'm all outa' Sam but my wife has some of that mich ultra in there but to me that ain't beer................ ;(

I'm not sure....can you make it one more time please?

O.k.

Ok, I know I should be commenting about the delicious looking pita pizza, but the Corelle Spring Blossom Green Daisy plate the cheese was on caught my attention.

You see my parents have had a set of those dishes for years. Probably all the way back to my high school days. Last year my Mom was lamenting that they were such great dishes, but over the years a few had broken (nine kids can be tough on dishes) and wished she could find a way to replace them.

So I spent a few weeks searching around for them on eBay and was able to acquire the missing pieces and a few extra. When she opened them on Mother's Day we all had a good laugh. But later she confided that it was a really great present and she was amazed that I could find them.

Funny you should mention the "Spring Blossom" phenomenon. These came from the sister of @anise. She left them at a Condo we had in Florida that we "let her use" when we lived down there.
Apparently she got them when she was married around 1962. I'm not surprised you found replacements on eBay as our neighbors recently had a yard sale and low and behold "Spring Blossom"!
These must have been the most widely distributed dishes in history.....oh, and the most well made as they seem to last forever.
If you ever need new dishes, think "Corelle" first....😀

Corelle definitely makes sturdy dishes. I believe that several of my sisters, having eaten every meal of their lives on these dishes, had a secret campaign to break every dish they could so as to force my Mom to get some new dishes. But after 20 years of subversive effort, they all gave up, got married and moved out. My sisters may have won a few skirmishes, but Corelle won the war. And my parents still use those dishes every day.

It's beginning to sound as though it won't matter who's house we drop by for dinner....we'll feel at home!

Toda una delicia, así como todas las recetasa que has publicado

Estoy seguro que su sabor, debe ser como su apariencia. Exquisito. Gracias por l recet, hermano. Un abrazo

Aww that was sweet, but can not tell same about its look. :#

They look very delicious. It is better to have 2 small ones instead of a big one. Personally, I would put different toppings on the 2nd pizza. We do this as well on normal ones.
