Pitta Pizzas

The easiest way to fall off a healthy diet is reaching for fast food that is more than likely too high in carbs/fat for your macros. We all have those days where we don't want to spend time making food, and our version of pitta pizzas are a great way of tackling this! A slice of wholemeal pitta bread is around 180 calories; 35.7g carbs, 0.6g fat and 6.2g protein. 

We have it with either chicken, tuna or minced meat on top - but as long as it fits into your diet, you can have whatever protein you want on it. As a rule of thumb, we keep chicken marinated in the fridge, which is then easy to make for lunch/dinner in the air fryer whenever needed. We also cook a kilo of lean minced mince which we dip into during the week. PREP IS KEY!

This is such an easy way to satisfy those pizza cravings and is mostly just piling things onto of each other, rather than having to stand around a stove to make food. If pizza's aren't your thing, but you still love the crunch, then skip on the salsa and you have yourself a satisfying cheese melt. 

Ingredients:

• Wholemeal Pitta Bread
• Chicken (can be replaced by another protein of your choice)
• Salsa
• Jalapenos (or another topping of your choice)
• Light Grated Cheese

Method:

1. Toast the pitta bread in a toaster until crisp, and cut in half before it cools down.
2. Slather salsa as a tomato base.
3. Add on your chopped chicken pieces and any other toppings. 
4. Finish off with the cheese!
5. Grill these in your oven or grill until the cheese has melted.
6. Enjoy!

Below is what our tuna melt looks like, but is mixed with chopped chillies instead of jalapenos.
