Ingredients:

2 tbsp basil
11g
1 pita bread
66g
1/4 cup mozzarella cheese
27g
3/4 cup spinach
22g
1 tsp olive oil
4.50g
2 oz turkey ham
54g
1 tomatoes
120g

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it's nice and hot when the pizza goes in.
2. Prepare the Pita:
Place the pita bread on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a lightly greased pizza stone.
3. Olive Oil Base:
Drizzle the teaspoon of olive oil over the pita bread, spreading it evenly with a brush or the back of a spoon. This will help to create a crispy base and add flavor.
4. Assemble the Pizza:
- Spinach Layer: Evenly spread the chopped spinach over the pita bread.
- Turkey Ham: Sprinkle the diced or sliced turkey ham over the spinach layer. Ensure it is evenly distributed for a balanced flavor in every bite.
- Tomato Slices: Arrange the thinly sliced tomatoes on top of the turkey ham.
5. Cheese and Basil:
- Mozzarella Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top of the tomatoes.
- Basil: Finally, sprinkle the finely chopped basil over the cheese. The basil will add a fresh, aromatic flavor.
6. Bake:
Place the assembled pita pizza in the preheated oven. Bake for about 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges of the pita are golden brown and crisp.
7. Serve:
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a minute or two. Cut into slices using a pizza cutter or sharp knife.
8. Enjoy:
Serve your Turkey, Spinach & Tomato Pita Pizza with Basil & Mozzarella warm. Pair it with a side salad or enjoy it as is for a delicious, quick meal!

Tips:

- For an even crispier pita, lightly toast the pita bread before adding the toppings.

- Feel free to substitute turkey ham with other lean proteins such as chicken breast or tofu for a vegetarian option.

- Add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes or a drizzle of balsamic glaze for an extra burst of flavor.

- Use fresh basil for the best taste, but dried basil can also be used in a pinch.

- Make sure not to overload the pita with toppings to ensure it cooks evenly and maintains a good structure.

With minimal preparation and cook time, this Turkey, Spinach & Tomato Pita Pizza with Basil & Mozzarella is sure to become a staple in your meal rotation. It's a fantastic way to enjoy a nutritious meal without compromising on flavor. Serve it with a side salad for a complete and balanced meal.
