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, for a spicy kick)

2 tablespoons olive oil

Salt and black pepper to taste

Fresh basil leaves, for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures that the pita pizzas will bake evenly and the cheese will melt beautifully.

    Prepare the Pitas: Arrange the whole wheat pitas on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup. Drizzle about 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil over each pita, using a brush or the back of a spoon to spread the oil evenly across the surface.

      Season the Pitas: Generously sprinkle garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and pepper over each pita. This step will infuse the base with delicious flavors.

        Add Cheese and Toppings: Evenly distribute the shredded mozzarella cheese across all pitas, leaving about a 1/2-inch border around the edges for easier handling. Layer on the sliced roasted red bell peppers, chopped spinach, and crumbled feta cheese. For an added burst of flavor and heat, sprinkle red pepper flakes on top of the assembly (if using).

          Bake: Carefully place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Bake the pita pizzas for approximately 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbling and golden brown, and the edges of the pitas are crispy.

            Garnish and Serve: Once out of the oven, give the pita pizzas a minute to cool slightly. Garnish each pizza with fresh basil leaves for an aromatic touch. Cut the pizzas into quarters and serve them warm.
