Quick Pizza






Sometimes a guy just doesn't have the time (or energy, or desire) to whip up a big fancy dinner. For me, this used to mean dinner consisted of some sort of frozen "food product" which was nuked in the microwave until warm enough to eat. Fortunately, I've learned that it doesn't have to be this way. This gourmet pizza can be prepared from start to finish in less than 10 minutes and was both fresh and delicious. Oh yeah, and really simple.

Quick Spinach and Smoked Mozzarella Pizza with Sundried Tomato Pesto

Ingredients:
  • 1 flatbread or pita shell
  • fresh spinach
  • sundried tomato pesto (purchased from the fresh section of the grocery store)
  • smoked mozzarella cheese
Preheat broiler and place oven rack on top rung. Coat both sides of pita shell with oil and place on rack (or on top of a pizza stone if you have one) and allow to toast for 3 minutes. Remove pita and top with pesto, spinach leaves, and slices of smoked mozzarella cheese. Season with basil, oregano, and cracked black pepper, and place back under the broiler until cheese is melted. Slice into two halves and enjoy!
