Time 20m

Yield 32 pieces, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 (6 inch) pita bread rounds, quartered (fresh or slightly stale, preferably whole wheat)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh chives, finely chopped
2 large fresh garlic cloves, minced
coarse salt, to taste

Steps:

  • Arrange in a single layer, rough side up, on an ungreased baking sheet.
  • Brush evenly with the oil.

  • Sprinkle evenly with coarse salt.
  • Bake on the top rack of the oven for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the pita quarters are nicely toasted.

PESTO PITA BRUSCHETTA - 2 WAYS



Pesto Pita Bruschetta - 2 Ways image

This is an healthier alternative to bruschetta using pita bread instead of a baguette or french stick. You can either use mayonnaise or cheese spread to mix with the pesto & either tomato slices or diced tomatoes. I use a soft cheese spread, the ones that are sold in triangles, they are really creamy & mix really well with the pesto.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 4m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pita bread round
1 teaspoon prepared pesto sauce
1 teaspoon mayonnaise or 1 teaspoon cream cheese spread
1 tomatoes, thinly sliced or 1/2 cup chopped grape tomatoes
2 tablespoons fresh parmesan cheese, grated

Steps:

  • Combine the pesto & mayonnaise or pesto & cream cheese. ( I do this on the pita to save on dishes).
  • Place or sprinkle tomatoes on top and then sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
  • Place under you griller or broiler and cook until pitas are slightly crisp & cheese is melted.
