Pita Bread Pizza

Hola People,
    How are you all enjoying the food and cooking.
We all love Pizza, don't we?
Sometimes, its fun to have it at home with ingredients which are readily available.
My friend Snehal made it when i had it for the first time. She totally nailed it. It tasted so much like MOD pizza. Hence, inspired from her I tried to recreate it at home.
  So, I got this pita bread from Costco and made some basil pesto and some veggies and was ready to serve and eat the simple yet delicious pizza.

INGREDIENTS:

For Basil Pesto :

Basil
1 bunch ( almost 1 cup)
Walnuts
1/3 cup
Garlic cloves
2 pods
Parmesan cheese
2 Tbsp
Olive Oil
1/4th cup
Salt
To taste
Pepper
½ tsp
Lime juice
½ lemon sqeezed

4 to 5 pieces halved
Onions
Chopped or sliced (I took half of one)

Capsicum
½ of one
Jalapenos
½ of one sliced
Italian seasoning
 & chili flakes

  1. Wash the basil well and chop it so that its easy to blend.
  2. Chop the walnuts.
  3. Blend basil, garlic and walnuts.
  4. Add in the Parmesan cheese and olive oil and blend it to a smooth paste.
  5. Finally add the salt and pepper and blend it again.
  6. Store it in a container for future use.

  2. Line the pita bread with some butter but its optional.
  3. Spread a spoonful of pesto/sauce of your choice.
  4. Sprinkle half of cheese and arrange the veggies of your choice in the pattern of your choice. I prefer just sprinkling them randomly.
  5. Add the rest of the cheese.
