Last week I wanted a quick dinner, but I also wanted to take advantage of a lot of really excellent ingredients in my fridge. This is what I ended up with. The mozzarella was from here, the tomatoes from here, and the spinach from here--a great combination.
-1 pita
-1 tomato, sliced and seeded
-1-2 oz. spinach, blanched
-fresh mozzarella, cubed
-olive oil
-red pepper flakes
-salt and pepper
-fresh basil
-fresh oregano
-balsamic glaze
1. Arrange tomatoes on the pita. Top with spinach and cubes of mozzarella. Drizzle with olive oil--not too much--and then season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Finish with fresh herbs.
2. Bake for about 15 minutes at 350*.
3. Drizzle with balsamic glaze. Cut into quarters.
The flavors were wonderful. The pita didn't have as much structural integrity as normal pizza crust, but otherwise this was pretty great--a little easier to put together than a full, real pizza when you're short on time, but every bit as delicious!
Was this made with those tomatoes you were talking about that only appear in stores for two weeks?
