RECIPE COLLECTION
“PARTY PITA WEDGES” IS IN:

PARTY PITA WEDGES 
2 regular sized pita pockets (6 inch)
2 large cloves garlic, minced
3 tbsp. olive oil
1 tbsp. butter
1/4 tsp. oregano
1/4 tsp. sea salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
16 slices pepperoni
4 round slices provolone cheese
1/3 cup medium chunky salsa

In a heatproof cup or bowl heat olive oil, oregano, salt and pepper in microwave on high for 40 seconds. Remove and add butter. Stir and set aside.

Using kitchen scissors, cut pita pockets into 4 pizza slice shaped wedges (slice in half, then slice each half again to make the wedges). Cut again along curved outer edge to separate into 2. Brush both sides of the pita wedges with warm olive oil mixture, coating well.

Place wedges crust side down on a baking sheet. Spread 1 teaspoon of salsa to top each wedge. Cut provolone slices into 4 wedge shapes and place one on top of each. Top with a slice of pepperoni, if desired. Drizzle with any remaining olive oil and sprinkle lightly with coarse sea salt.

Bake in a preheated 375°F oven for 15 minutes or until golden brown and cheese is bubbly. Serve while still warm.

Makes 16 wedges.

Variation: Cut pita into 4 wedge shaped pockets. Fill the same way as above (but only half as much cheese wedges and pepperoni slices will be needed if making pockets instead of crusts).

Its the big game, Party Pizza Wedges YOUR IN!

My husband loves thin crust pizza and these are perfect. I was sooooo bored with English muffin pizzas.

A tip: We like veggie toppings, so I hit up the salad bar for small servings of pre-chopped ham, olives, peppers, onions etc. Easy and Cheap.
