Fuel Up Friday: Pre-Race Pizza, Post-Race Pizza, Heck It's Any Time Pizza!

5/10/2019

 
Picture
If you know me  - you know how much I LOVE pizza. There's a tradition amongst my crew to gather the evening before events for what we call simply "pre-race pizza". Occasionally, this also becomes post-race pizza. And because I can't always wait for these special occasions I'm often whipping up these easy pita pies whenever I feel like it! No race needed. Super fast to prepare, perfect for quick lunches and they are darn good anytime! Try this...
​
Grab yourself some whole grain pitas, they come in various sizes so you can go small for snacks and bigger for main meals. 
Decide what toppings you're in mood for today. Some of my favorite combos are...
Margarita: mozzerella cheese, sliced tomatoes, italian herbs and fresh basil.
Country style: thin sliced salami, roasted red peppers, feta and spinach
Fancy pants: sliced pears, blue cheese and bacon crumbles
Olive bar: sometimes I'll fill a tub of goodies from the olive bar at the grocery, sliced it all up, top with shredded cheese and call it YUM! 
You can cook these in the oven at about 400 degrees for 6-8 minutes or use a toaster over or even a grill. Easy peasy! Give it a try and share your pita-pizza ideas!
